Roger Waters - Too much rope

Tekst :

When the sleigh is heavy
And the timber wolves are getting bold
You look at you companions
And test the water of their friendship
With your toe
They significantly edge
Closer to the gold
Each man has his price Bob
And yours was pretty low
History is short the sun is just a minor star
The poor man sells his kidneys
In some colonial bazaar
Ce sera sera
Is that your new Ferrari car
Nice but I think I ll wait for the F50
You don t have to be a Jew
To disapprove of murder
Tears burn our eyes
Moslem or Christian Mullah or Pope
Preacher or poet who was it wrote
Give any one species too much rope
And they ll fuck it up
And last night on TV
A Vietnam vet
Takes his beard and his pain
And his alienation twenty years
Back to Asia again
Sees the monsters they made
In formaldehyde floating round
Meets a gook on a bike
A good little tyke
A nice enough guy
With the same soldier s eyes
Tears burn my eyes
What does it mean
This tear jerking scene
Beamed into my home
That it moves me so much
Why all the fuss
It s only two humans being
It s only two humans being
Tears burn my eyes
What does it mean
This tender TV
This tear jerking scene
Beamed into my home
You don t have to be a Jew
To disapprove of murder
Tears burn in our eyes
Moslem or Christian Mullah or Pope
Preacher or poet who was it wrote
Give any one species too much rope
And they ll fuck it up

    Mindless boogie

    As the bomb goes Neutron
    So for you and I
    Will the finger on the button decide
    If we live of if we die?

    The more you blow your mind
    The more you search for a peace here

    Walk alone

    Who s to say he s not the gifted one.
    well i forgot he s not the teacher s son.
    No he s just a reason for her to say
    that she needs a substance in her today
    well who s to say he s not...

    Go baby

    Piensas que yo me muero por ti
    y que tus garras me pueden herir
    tu sabes que sin tí puedo vivir
    ya llévate tus huesos de aquí.

    Soy libre ya no vuelvas más.

    CORO

    Ya vete volando, vete llorando
    y...

    Sing along forever

    I m driving listening to my radio,
    checkin out the airwaves for something to believe in,
    gimme something to hold true,
    gimme something to sing about.
    Gimme a reason to care,
    I ll sing along forever

    Watered-down words covered in song
    trying to hide the truth
    That life is beautiful,
    and life is pain
    give it...

    Piosenka na nie

    Smutne płyty z dawnych lat
    Czarno-czarny marny świat
    Kalendarze smętnych dni
    Wszystko co się kiepsko śni
    Podaruję ci
    To co za daleko stąd
    Jakiś kolosalny błąd
    Wszystko to co jest na nie
    Wszystko co się kończy źle
    Tobie ślę
