I heard there was a kind of tree releasing spores,
|
That could enslave a mind, to follow secret laws.
|
He came home one day and he was changed for good.
|
Now he'll never walk, under sycamore.
|
|
I love you like we're in the movies.
|
I got a Cold War fascination.
|
Blooming with the day she was.
|
|
He said "I won't dirty you when I'm making love."
|
He don't realise. He don't realise.
|
|
I love you like we're in the movies.
|
I got a pirate fascination.
|
Blooming at the gate she was.
|
But Uncle Johnny, I don't see a way out,
|
It's like a roller coaster going round and round
|
in my childhood holiday,
|
But there all in chains:
|
My mama's in chains,
|
My daddy's in chains,
|
My brother's in chains,
|
Sister: chains,
|
Julietta: chains,
|
Julianna: chains,
|
Frida: chains.
|
|
I heard there was some kind of lost metropolis
|
That could enslave a mind, to harbour
|
Secret fears.
|
|
I gotta get paid; gotta get made of make-believe,
|
'Cause there is no country for young men
|
like me.
|
|
I love you starlight,
|
Hold tight, when you're seeing red,
|
But it's alright, put my head under the bed.
|
And singing me to sleep, she was,
|
but they're all in chains:
|
My mama's in chains,
|
My daddy's in chains,
|
My brother's in chains,
|
Sister: chains,
|
Julietta: chains,
|
Julianna: chains,
|
Frida: chains.
|
|
Guess there is no country for young men,
|
No country for young men,
|
No country for young men like you.
|
|
I bet you're at some kind of party.
|
I bet you're like a superstar there.
|
I hope you're on an A-3-80 outta here.
|
|
I love you like we're in the movies.
|
I bet you're hanging out with Tupac.
|
I hope you're out there,
|
Somewhere in the atmosphere.
|
|
I heard there was a kind of tree releasing spores,
|
That could enslave a min, to follow secret laws.
