Mersey Paradise — текст песни (Stone Roses, The)

River splashes against the locks
And I scale the slope
And hope the tracks won`t
Lead me down to dark black pits or
Places where we fall to bits

If she were there I`d hold her down
I`d push her under while she drowns
And couldn`t breathe and claw for air
She doesn`t care for my despair

Or is it me?
The one that`s wrong? (one that`s wrong?)
You see in this heat
River cools where I belong
In my Mersey paradise

As I stare an oil can comes
Sailing by and I feel like
Growing fins and falling in
With the bricks the bikes the rusty tins

I swim along without a care
I`m eating sand when I need air
You can bet your life I`ll meet a pike who`ll
Wolf me down for tea tonight

I want to be (I want to be)
Where the drownings are (drownings are)
You see in this heat
River cool`s where I belong
In my Mersey paradise

I want to be (I want to be)
Where the drownings are (drownings are)
You see it in the sea
River cool`s where I belong

Oh yeah

I want to be (I want to be)
Where the drownings are (drownings are)
You see it in the sea
River cool`s where I belong
In my Mersey paradise
