nineteen ninety eight looked great on
|
plain white paper on the fiftieth plane to champaign
|
but to tell you the truth
|
if i had a chance to kill it
|
i'd pick it up and take it and shake it and
|
kiss it to death
|
there's something inside like a conscience
|
that says "you're painting floors while
|
your pals are renaming the stars
|
get up get up and go do what you started
|
if you want to be a martyr, try harder"
|
|
go my son have you grown?
|
go make a home
|
and put the kids in their beds
|
|
|
and i will talk about this year
|
if there was something to talk about
|
and you sell and you sell with your heart
|
so you can make a few bucks and lose a few friends
|
and this is the stuff that makes you
|
and it will be the same that breaks you
|
move on get on with your life
|
it's pointless to play if you don't get paid
|
|
|
why not go my son have you grown?
|
go make a home
|
and put the kids in their beds
|
the kid's in our heads
|
we've got a lot of great mistakes to make
|
we've got a lot of chances to take
|
so let's take our time and hurry
|
|
|
go my son has come home
|
i said no and made my own
|
and put the kids in their beds
|
the kid's in our heads
|
we've got a lot of people to fear this year
|
so addy if you want to be near
|
sing will to the wind and worry
|
oh addy do i love you
|
but god such things i have to do
|
addy do i want to hear you
|
but i just can't get through
|
addy do i miss you
|
these dreams i sing when i
|
kiss you
|
|
oh addy do i love you
|
but got such things i have to do
|
ady do i want to hold you
|
but anyone may do
|
addy do i miss you
|
these dreams i sing when i'm
