[al:Live at Fashion Rocks] |
| [00:00.00] |
|
| [00:11.26] |
Pushing through the market square |
| [00:14.53] |
So many mothers sighing |
| [00:19.07] |
News had just come over |
| [00:24.11] |
We have five years left to sigh in |
| [00:29.66] |
News guy wept when he told us |
| [00:33.39] |
Earth was really dying |
| [00:38.55] |
Cried so much that his face was wet |
| [00:42.37] |
Then I knew he was not lying |
| [00:46.61] |
I heard telephones, opera house |
| [00:49.68] |
favourite melodies |
| [00:51.66] |
I saw toys, boys, |
| [00:53.92] |
electric irons and TVs |
| [00:56.64] |
Brain hurt like a warehouse |
| [00:58.50] |
Had no room to spare |
| [01:00.57] |
Had to cram so many things to store |
| [01:03.43] |
Everything in there |
| [01:04.64] |
Fat-skinny people |
| [01:08.05] |
Tall-short people |
| [01:12.97] |
Somebody people |
| [01:17.44] |
Nobody people |
| [01:21.00] |
I never thought I'd need so many people |
| [01:25.50] |
|
| [01:28.54] |
A girl my age went off her head |
| [01:32.86] |
Hit some tiny children |
| [01:37.60] |
If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, |
| [01:42.02] |
Well, I think she would have killed them |
| [01:46.50] |
A soldier with a broken arm |
| [01:49.85] |
Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac |
| [01:55.39] |
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest |
| [01:59.87] |
And a queer threw up at the sight of that |
| [02:04.15] |
And I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour |
| [02:09.63] |
Drinking milk shakes cold and long |
| [02:13.52] |
Smiling and waving and looking so fine |
| [02:17.98] |
Don't think you knew you were in this song |
| [02:22.10] |
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor |
| [02:26.94] |
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there |
| [02:31.52] |
Your face, your race, |
| [02:33.53] |
the way that you talk |
| [02:35.74] |
I kiss you, you're beautiful |
| [02:38.21] |
I want you to walk |
| [02:39.90] |
We've got five years |
| [02:42.52] |
Stuck on my eyes |
| [02:44.52] |
Five years |
| [02:47.19] |
What a surprise |
| [02:49.00] |
Five years |
| [02:51.57] |
My brain hurts a lot |
| [02:53.88] |
Five years |
| [02:55.94] |
That's all we've got |
| [02:57.80] |
We've got five years |
| [03:00.83] |
Stuck on my eyes |
| [03:02.48] |
Five years |
| [03:05.27] |
What a surprise |
| [03:06.65] |
We've got five years |
| [03:09.25] |
My brain hurts a lot |
| [03:11.83] |
Five years |
| [03:13.79] |
God, that's all we've got |
| [03:15.64] |
We've got five years |
| [03:18.61] |
Stuck on my eyes |
| [03:20.52] |
Five years |
| [03:22.67] |
What a surprise |
| [03:24.69] |
Five years |
| [03:27.07] |
My brain hurts a lot |
| [03:29.12] |
Five years |
| [03:31.80] |
That's all we've got |
| [03:33.63] |
