Sign O The Times — текст песни (Simple Minds)

Oh yeah

In france a skinny man

Died of a big disease with a litte name

By chance his girlfriend came across a needle

And soon she did the same



At homethere are seventeen-year-old boys

And their idea of fun

Is being in a gang called the disciples

High on crack, totin a machine gun



Time time



Hurricane annie ripped the ceiling off a church

And killed everyone inside

You turn on the telly and every other story

Is tellin you somebody died



Sister killed here baby cuz she could affort to feed it

And were sending people to the moon

In september my cousin tried reefer for the very first time

Now hes doing horse, its june



Time time



Its silly, no? when a rocket ship explodes

And everybody still wants to fly



Some say a man aint happy

Unless a man truly dies

Oh why



Time time



Baby make a speech, star wars fly

Neighbours just shine it on

But if a night falls and a bomb falls

Will anybody see the dawn



Time time



Its silly, no? when a rocket ship explodes

And everybody still wants to fly



Some say a man aint happy

Unless a man truly dies

Oh why



Time time



Sign o the times mess with your mind

Hurry before its too late

Lets fall in love, get married, have a baby

Well call him hate...if its a boy



Time times



Time time
