Song | Better Dead Than Lead |
Artist | Ted Leo and the Pharmacists |
Album | Shake the Sheets |
作曲 : Leo | |
I had a golden ring | |
And I kept it with golden things | |
In the bank of a million dreams | |
That was bursting at all the seams | |
I had a golden ring | |
It was such an important thing | |
That I kept it beneath my bed | |
And I carried it in my head | |
I had a golden dream | |
And the way it came down to me | |
Was through captains of alchemy | |
Who came up through a steely sea | |
And I dreamt through the rainy night | |
And I managed to sleep alright | |
And my body became so light | |
That I managed to give it flight | |
'Cause I know gold is just a trick of light | |
And lead is light as a feather | |
So leave me where the kids are alright | |
And we will all go down together | |
I had a golden dream | |
And they took it away from me | |
And they pulled it out of my head | |
And they showed me that it was lead | |
But I know gold is just a trick of light | |
And lead is light as a feather | |
So leave me where the kids are alright | |
And we will all go down together | |
And that's the way | |
It's gonna be | |
And there's water in wine | |
And there's nickel in dimes | |
And they knew all the time | |
But gold is just a trick of light | |
And lead is light as a feather | |
So leave me where the kids are alright | |
And we will all go down together | |
Gold is just a trick of light | |
And lead is light as a feather | |
So leave me where the kids are alright | |
And we will all go down together | |
And that's the way | |
It's gonna be | |
That's the way | |
It's gonna be |
