Lamplighter`s Parade — текст песни (Remy Zero)

We`re standing around
at the New Year`s Eve party
with the bridegroom, oh
and we climb down the stairs
where the actress is working
the bedroom, ah
and it`s a way of saying

Chorus:
I`m coming down with a disease
of too much wasting
for one to fix

It`s the purpose of the world
you would never know it
sometimes, now sometimes

Don`t I make like it`s easy
to laugh in your face
though I praise you for knowing
how it`s one thing to bitch
you`re so sick of this place
it`s quite another to be good
another way of saying

Repeat chorus.

It`s the purpose of the world
but you would never know it
sometimes, now sometimes
(oooohhhh ahhhh)
and you think we`ve got it now
oh you think we`ve got it now
the world`s reach
and the ordinary world
do you think we`ve got it now?
