Shooting Shark — текст песни (blue oyster cult)

Well I bumped inside the magic man

And he laid some tricks on me

He said, "you do need help my friend"

I whispered, "obviously"

He laid a spread of jacks and queens

And he bade me take my pick

But every face it had your face

I cried out, "i am sick"



Sick of hauling your love around

Want to run the train alone

But the engine tracks straight through your heart

And weighs me like a stone



Oh, its a hard load to love you

It takes up all my time, having you

So familiar

Like last lifes

Nursery rhyme



So I gave away the pictures

And your golden ring

And the phone calls you sent me

And the silver birds that sing

Then the man he told me something

That really brought me down

Your things were thrown away, its true

But you were still in town



Sick of hauling your love around

Wanna run the train alone

But the engine tracks straight through your heart

And weighs me like a stone



Oh, its a hard load to love you

It takes up all my time, having you

So familiar

Like last lifes

Nursery rhyme



The magician let a message

It flashes when I hide

Accept the chains of loving

Accept or else remove yourself from her side

And do without her love

And I lay back with a steel chain

I keep it by my side

I could mail a letter to you but I still

Have my pride



Sick of hauling your love around

Wanna run the train alone

But the engine tracks straight through your heart

And weighs me like a stone



Three times Ive sent you back from me

Three times my bones gone dry

And three times Ive seen the shooting shark

Lighting up the sky



Oh, its a hard load to love you, babe

It takes my breath away

The fourth time round

Is the last time round

Theres nothing else to say
