Hot House Ball — текст песни (Bruce Hornsby)

B.r. hornsby



Weve lived around here most all of our lives

Did most anything we wanted to do

We will celebrate every 4th of july

Just a little tamer than most of the rest of us do



Dont light a match, dont play with fire

Pull down easy on the gas lighter

Theres a shelter down at the veterans hall

Living in the shadow of the hot house ball



We can dance in the streets any night or day

The big ball men built such a nice old park

One day well celebrate every halloween

Our faces as masks everyone glow in the dark



Dont light a match, dont play with fire

Step real lightly round the barb wire

Keep the noise down to hear the meltdown call

Living in the shadow of the hot house ball



Tempers hot, better pray for rain

Better watch out now for the gamma rays

Party time at the government gate



Dont light a match, dont play with fire

Pull down easy on the gas lighter

Theres a shelter down at the veterans hall

Living in the shadow of the hot house ball
