Cricket Wife
Time has stopped The air is still Nothing moves Or ever will Present tense is future past Velocity slows so fast The air is still Nothing moves or ever will "I'm going home I've had enough Call a taxi I want my stuff Where are my shoes? My coat My hat Get me out I smell a rat I can't remember why or where They brought me here But this is there And then is now A sudden sigh And now it's late And where am I? And where am I? SongtexteWhere am I? A sudden sound Where am I?" "Whey are my shoes? My coat, my hat? Just get me out I smell a rat Whey are my shoes? My coat, my hat? Just get me out I smell a rat Whey are my shoes? My coat, my hat? Just get me out I smell a rat" "I can't remember why or when They brought me here But this then And then is now A sudden sigh A sudden sigh And now it's late And where am I? A sudden sigh A sudden sigh And now it's late" "Another sigh Then sleep to dream Laughing, flying from the scene I saw you clearly in my mind Flying, leaving it all behind Bones and blood And anxious anger Replaced in space by girlish laughter" A sunny day His turn to bat The cricket wives Sip tea and chat That's that, he's out Not such a bad innings They still have a fair enough chance of winning His boyish smile She understands him His lack of guile Her soul demands him He packs his bags They're off together And that was that And is forever Aus Songtexte Mania
