LIke a Record Player |
| I’m like a record player |
| I keep goin' round |
| with a needle in my arm |
| making someone else’s sound |
| and lately I’ve been dreaming |
| of blue and empty skies |
| but nothing like that ever |
| crosses red and weary eyes |
| I’ve been traveling with bottles |
| working close with cans |
| sitting up forever with my best friends in a van |
| They’ve been saying «just a living» |
| but I don’t know what they mean |
| cuz I don’t think they’ll ever be looking live to me |
| it’s the only game that I know how to play |
| The time, the time, to say goodbye |
| passed us long ago. |
| and I would say I (we've) overstayed |
| my welcome but you know |
| I don’t think I’m (we're) ever going home |
| I don’t need a doctor |
| cuz anyone can see |
| that I had all of these shots |
| and I am still sick as I can be |
| I think I need to rest my eyes |
| so baby come with me |
| lay down here beside me |
| keep me warm while I sleep |
| There’s trouble on the way |
| huh! |
| you poised to leave? |
| there always is and will |
| sit and have a drink with me |
| where we go all we got is these days that we made |
| but I don’t wanna waste them being wistful or afraid |
| Without all of you I’d be even lower down |
| You know what I want to say but I can’t get it out |
| The time, the time, to say goodbye |
| passed us long ago. |
| and I would say we’ve overstayed |
| my welcome but you know |
| I don’t think we’re ever going home |
| I don’t think we’re ever going home, oh no! |
