Policemen and Pirates |
The house caught on fire in the winter |
The bosses lay slain |
And each of the workers decided to ten-fold their pay |
And they saw in the mirror |
The sun had been shot down in flames |
And nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain |
But it doesn’t really matter when the judgements are said |
'Cause we all take our chances to find out |
Romance is in some others bed |
And you might burn your fingers |
Hook your best rings for those |
Who’d have you standing naked |
Then publicly auction the use of a hose |
All the children were laughing |
There faces in half at the pain |
At the girl who liked talking to walls and jumpin' at trains |
And the words that ring true |
In the playground of fools will remain |
And nobody minded the hole in the sky or the rain |
But it doesn’t really matter |
When the rights have been read |
'Cause we all take our chances to glance at the wife in the opposite bed |
And I bet Nero and Pilate could easily explain |
How policemen and pirates get stoned in glass houses |
Just finding their way |
