Diamonds, roses,I need Moses To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain I don't necessarily buy any key to the future or happiness But I need a little place in the sun sometimes Or I think I will die
Everywhere is somewhere And nowhere is near Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer So I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here With an empty apartment and a best friend who is queer
Everytime I see him he smiles And he tells me how well he's walking these miles But he never ever asks a single thing about me If I die, he'd hear about it eventually Diamonds, roses, I need Moses To cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
Everywhere is somewhere And nowhere is near Everybody got somebody with their wine and their beer So I'm just this tragic figure in the corner over here Go home to an empty apartment and call a best friend who is a queer
Diamonds, roses, I need Moses to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain to cross this sea of loneliness, Part this red river of pain
Ain't no talkin to this man Ain't no pretty other side Ain't no way to understand the stupid words of pride It would take an acrobat, and I already tried all that so I'm gonna let him fly Things can move at such a pace The second hand just waved goodbye You know the light has left his face But you can't recall just where or why So there was really nothing to it I just went and cut right through it I said I'm gonna let him fly
There's no mercy in a live wire No rest at all in freedom Of the choices we are given it's no choice at all The proof is in the fire You touch before it moves away But you must always know how long to stay and when to go
And there ain't no talkin to this man He's been tryin to tell me so It took awhile to understand the beauty of just letting go Cause it would take an acrobat, I already tried all that I'm gonna let him fly I'm gonna let him fly I'm gonna let him fly
It's funny how a morning turns a love to shame Disguised and disfigured and you thought I tasted like rain There`s nothing here but a shadow nothin here Now you know Now you know Now you know Now you know There's nothin here but the shadow, and now you know
I spit, I spit in the eye I tear, I tear out my heart and I scatter the bits I stay unseen by the light I stay untold by the truth I'm sold by a lie By this I am able in all of my travels To make these memories quit But tonight I clearly recall every little bit
I can chew like a cannibal I can yell like a cat I even had you believing that I really really like it like that But there was never a moment Not a moment Now you know Now you know Now you know Now you know You ever got within a hundred million miles of my soul
I spit, I spit in the eye I tear, I tear out my heart And I scatter the bits I stay unseen by the light I stay untold by the truth I'm sold by a lie By this I am able in all of my travels To make these memories quit But tonight I clearly recall every little bit
You left open the window till the morning And the winter walked in Reality fired her wooden bullet Splintered under our skin They say I'm walking on freedom This is freedom Now I know Now I know Now I know Now I know I still don't blame you for leaving,baby It's cold living with ghosts
I spit, I spit in the eye I tear, I tear out my heart and I scatter the bits I stay unseen by the light I stay untold by the truth I'm sold by a lie By this I am able in all of my travels To make these memories quit But tonight I clearly recall every little bit
You were so cruel I hated being your fool So I got a little bit more mud on my face But the years will bring a bigger scheme of things And make a pretty memory out of my disgrace I don't believe there is such a thing as saying too much There are those who like to look and Those who ain't afraid to touch
Oh baby don't you know that the Time will do the talking Years will do the walking I'll just find a comfy spot and wait it out Time will do the talking Years will do the walking Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now
Well we dig our heels in And wonder who's gonna win Who is gonna win it or wear it out I change the lock on the door Or learn how to take a little more I can outrun all of the devils there But never the doubt Try not to throw all your money into 20/20 vision For the world won't wait on politics or indecision
Oh baby don't you know that the Time will do the talking Years will do the walking I'll just find a comfy spot and wait it out Time will do the talking Years will do the walking Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now
Can you hear the voice inside you It calls you back to where you belong Can you see the one beside you Who's been standin' there all along Baby, well you were so cruel I hated being your fool So I got a little bit more Mud on my face But the years will bring The bigger scheme of things And make a pretty memory out of my disgrace
The time will do the talking Years will do the walking I'll just find a comfy spot and wait it out Time will do the talking Years will do the walking Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now Time will tell you baby what you can't hear now
We were drinking like the Irish But we were drinking scotch Bartender turned on a movie Everybody turned to watch And every single eye was gleaming As he reached the final scene Well, at least mine did Here's lookin' at you, kid
It's a mad mission Under difficult conditions not everybody makes it To the loving cup It's a mad mission But I got the ambition Mad, mad mission sign me up
I think I've seen the look before,yes, it's kind of non-commital It says come hither, baby, but then he's hard wood to whittle it says it don't mean a thing, but still, somebody does He'd like you to join the club that likes to say there's no such thing as love and
It's a mad mission Under difficult conditions not everybody makes it To the loving cup It's a mad mission But I got the ambition Mad, mad mission sign me up
Sometimes you find yourself flying low at night Flying blind and looking for Any sign of light You're cold and scared, and all alone You'd do anything just to make it home
It's a mad mission Under difficult conditions not everybody makes it To the loving cup It's a mad mission But I got the ambition Mad, mad mission sign me up
You know you've done enough when every bone is sore You know you've prayed enough when you don't ask any more You know you're coming to some kind of understanding When every dream you've dreamed has passed and you're still standing Mama says god tends to every little skinny sheep So count your ribs and say your prayers and get to sleep Nothing is louder to god's ears than a poor mans sorrow Daddy is poor today and he will be poor tomorrow
Hey that's the poor man's house Everybody get a look at the poor man's house Everywhere they went before must have turned them out And now they're living in a poor man's house
There's nothing like poverty to get you into heaven They got a lot of wine and fish up there And the bread's unleavened They got a lot of ears that heard a whip go crack Lots of missing toes and fingers and scars upon their backs Daddy's been working too much for days and days He doesn't eat He never says much but I think this time it's got him beat It isn't that he isn't strong or kind or clever Your daddy's poor today And he will be poor forever
Tey that's the poor man's house Those kids are living in a poor man's house They walk to school with the soles of their shoes worn out And come home in the evening to the poor man's house
What are you chopping that wood for Why are you growing that corn Mama's sewing a brand new shirt and You're wearing the one that's torn I guess it's for some one elses kid who wasn't born In a poor man's house
Hey take a look at that house Everybody we're living in a poor man's house Seems like everywhere we go they find us out Find out that we've been living in a poor man's house
We are swimming with the snakes At the bottom of the well So silent and peaceful in the darkness where we fell But we are not snakes and what's more We never will be And if we stay swimming here forever we will Never be free
I heard them ringing the bells In heaven and hell They got a secret They're getting ready to tell It's falling from the sky Calling from the graves Open your eyes, boy, I think we are saved Open your eyes, boy, I think we are saved Let's take a walk on the bridge Right over this mess Don't need to tell me a thing, baby We've already confessed And I raised my voice to the air And we were blessed Everybody needs a little forgiveness Everybody needs a little forgiveness
We are calling for him tonight on this Thin phone line As usual we're having ourselves one hell of a time And the planes keep flying right over our heads No matter how lond we shout "Hey, hey, hey !" And we keep waving and waving Our arms in the air But we're all tired out
I heard somebody say Today's the day A big old hurricaine Is blowing our way Knocking over the buildings Killing all the light Open your eyes, boy, we made it through the night Open your eyes, boy, we made it through the night Let's take a walk on the bridge Right over this mess Don't need to tell me a thing, baby We've already confessed And I raised my voice to the air And we were blessed Everybody needs a little forgiveness Everybody needs a little forgiveness
You first found me in my holding pen Stopped to take a look and stuck your finger in I bit one off and you came back again and again Then the nice people let me out one day And you told me how to act and What to say But you never get what you wanted that way
You never get what you want You never get what you want and I don't think it's my fault You never get what you want, do you baby?
Everything's always such a mystery Including your sad little history Do you still think someone should take responsibility and pay Ever since I've know you you've walked that walk You've broken all the records Now you've broken all the clocks And everytime it breaks my heart to hear you talk this way
You never get what you want You never get what you want and I don't think it's my fault You never get what you want, do you baby?
Everybody's been sad, everybody's been tragic Whole lot of hard times, whole little bit of magic These bitter bitter fruits and these endless hallways They're killing us baby We gotta walk away, walk away
You never get what you want You never get what you want You spend your whole time thinkin 'bout why I'm so deranged Well honey, why don't you think about that for a change? You never get what you want You never get what you want Your whole damn life You never get what you want Not your whole damn life You never get what you want And I don't think it's my fault You never get what you want Do you baby
