Babe they say that this world is better than the last I wouldn't know - I have no way of living in the past Where once there was a garden the streets have overflowed From the Golden Gates to the East Block states You can hear creation groan
If there is a shining beacon out across the amber waves It lies hidden on the teeming shores beneath the burned-out Chevrolets And the eyes that scattered high-rise hope across the fruited plains See TV's glowing in the projects through the greasy windowpanes
Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way down Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way to fall Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way down Baby it's a long... baby it's a big world after all
Purple mountains' majesty has ratings that are poor History bows to coverage, moderation bows to more Far side of the ocean is the far side of the tracks All God's children learn to build and learn to watch their backs
There are felons out in the prison yard imagining their release And the free thank God for the atom bomb, the keeper of the peace Another day, another chance to curse away the doubt Another night, another thousand points of light go out
Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way down Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way to fall Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way down Baby it's a long... baby it's a big world after all
Hypnotized and shuttled in the limousine of hate Watching the scenery shatter in the brittle jaws of fate Well baby, I'm just another fare, I don't make the rules I'd break them if I thought it would do you some good
Well, the diggers and the bankers and the architects and fools Got to work and you can't stop them with bitter tears or golden rules It's a race to stay alive, baby, it's lawyers tax and steel 'Til the life that you are living is the thing you never feel
Babe they say that this world is better than the last I wouldn't know, I have no way of living in the past Where once there was a garden, oh, the streets have overflowed From the Golden Gate to the East Block states You can hear creation groan
[2x:] Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way down Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way to fall Baby it's a long... baby it's a long way down Baby it's a long... baby it's a big world after allTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
