| [00:15.310] |
They take apart their bodies like toys for the local boys |
| [00:19.940] |
Because they're always there at the edge of the water |
| [00:23.460] |
They come from the capitol these city girls go way down |
| [00:28.170] |
Where the stones meet the sea |
| [00:30.130] |
|
| [00:33.460] |
And all you young girls where do you hide |
| [00:36.490] |
|
| [00:37.780] |
Down by the water in the restless tide |
| [00:41.190] |
|
| [00:46.190] |
And the local boys hide on the mound and watch |
| [00:49.530] |
Reaching for the speech and the word to be heard |
| [00:52.900] |
And the boys grow hard hard to be heard |
| [00:56.150] |
Hard to be heard as they reach for the speech |
| [00:59.250] |
And search for the word on the water's edge |
| [01:02.130] |
|
| [01:05.500] |
But you grow old and you grow cold |
| [01:09.180] |
Yea you grow old and you grow cold |
| [01:12.460] |
|
| [01:17.630] |
They would come in their hordes these city girls |
| [01:20.330] |
|
| [01:21.230] |
With white strings flowing from their ears |
| [01:24.810] |
As the local boys behind the mound |
| [01:27.170] |
|
| [01:27.720] |
Think long and hard about the girls from the capitol |
| [01:32.120] |
Who dance at the water's edge shaking their asses |
| [01:35.730] |
|
| [01:41.110] |
And all you young lovers where do you hide |
| [01:44.630] |
|
| [01:45.740] |
Down by the water in the restless tide |
| [01:48.900] |
|
| [01:54.010] |
With a bible of tricks they do with their legs |
| [01:57.230] |
The girls reach for the speech and the speech to be heard |
| [02:00.170] |
To be hard the local boys teem down the mound |
| [02:03.960] |
And seize the girls from the capitol |
| [02:06.470] |
|
| [02:06.990] |
Who shriek at the edge of the water |
| [02:09.650] |
Shriek to speak and reach for the speech |
| [02:12.840] |
Reach for the speech to be heard |
| [02:16.340] |
|
| [02:19.130] |
But you grow old and you grow cold |
| [02:22.050] |
|
| [02:22.610] |
Yea you grow old and you grow cold |
| [02:25.980] |
|
| [02:27.100] |
You grow old |
| [02:28.400] |
|
| [02:35.490] |
Their legs wide to the world like bibles open |
| [02:38.830] |
To be speared and taking their bodies apart like toys |
| [02:42.690] |
|
| [02:43.300] |
They dismantle themselves by the water's edge |
| [02:46.570] |
And reach for the speech and the wide wide world |
| [02:50.670] |
|
| [02:51.280] |
Ah God knows our local boys |
| [02:55.950] |
|
| [03:00.800] |
It's the will of love |
| [03:03.070] |
|
| [03:03.970] |
It's the thrill of love |
| [03:06.300] |
|
| [03:07.040] |
Ah but the chill of love is coming on |
| [03:12.980] |
|
| [03:13.820] |
It's the will of love |
| [03:16.890] |
It's the thrill of love |
| [03:19.980] |
Ah but the chill of love is coming on |
| [03:25.400] |
|
| [03:27.000] |
It's the will of love |
| [03:29.780] |
It's the thrill of love |
| [03:33.030] |
Ah but the chill of love is coming down people |
