Swallow My Pride (Green River tune) — текст песни (Pearl Jam)

She looked at me with dignity,said...
"There`s something you got to see...
If you know we`re headed for war
This country`s prouder than ever before...
Yes,there`s a spirit in the air
We`re more American than anywhere..."
Well I just smiled,`cause I could tell
This little girl`s going to hell

Now I wouldn`t mind
If you swallowed my pride
Would make me feel alright
Deep inside,feel alright...

All the warmth in her heart
Can`t keep my blood from running cold
Keep my blood from running cold
First I fell for her looks
Now I just wanna go for the throat
I tried to tell her a hundred times
This little girl didn`t understand at all
Pride comes before a fall...

Now I wouldn`t mind
If you swallowed my pride
Make me feel alright
Deep inside,feel alright...
Ohhh...

This ain`t the Garden of Eden
This ain`t the summer of love
Things ain`t what they used to be
There ain`t no angels above
Whoa...

Ain`t the Garden of Eden
Ain`t no angels above
Things ain`t what they used to be
This ain`t the summer of love
