Roger Waters - Towers of faith

Tekst :

Ooooh, the lonely boys
In their towers of faith
Ooooh, the lonely boys
Locked in their towers of faith

The prophet reclined
On the Golan Heights

Ohhh, the lonely boys

He said, this land is my land
To the Shiites

Ooooh, the lonely boys

And Jehova looked up from the sea of Galilee beneath
He said, I see you, you thief

This land is my land
And this sand is my sand
And this band is my band
Oh the lonely boys
Lookin over their shoulder
Checkin out every boulder in the park
Where the gates are closed from hate
After dark

And the Pope rolled up in his armored van
He fell on his knees and kissed the land
He said something that I did not understand
It was in polish
Then up stepped an aide
He said, I will translate
Here is what His Holiness said:
I am the Chief Jesuit.
This land is Jesus land.
And that is all
All that there is to it.
Hail Mary
Mother of God

And in New York City
The business man in his mohair suit
In the world trade center
Puffs on his cheroot
And he said,
Well I don t care who owns the desert sands
My brief
Is with the hydrocarbons underneath
And the sea of battle rages
Around the ancient tombs
And mother nature licks her wounds
And the lonely boys locked in their towers of faith
Who are nervous in the park
When the gates are closed after dark

Ooooh, the lonely boys
In their towers of faith
Ooooh, the lonely boys
Locked in their towers of faith

    Your smiling face

    The weather says the sun won t shine
    And I ve arrested my free time
    No bottle here to ease my mind
    My rationale has just run wild

    But when I see your smiling face
    I know I would not trade my place
    I tell you girl I m so in love with you

    Sometimes...

    Quick check girl

    The first wedensday i saw her
    there smiling at me with here blue eyes
    and curly hair i couldn t wait till next week
    to make the stop see her at the
    quick check paper drop.

    Every wedensday we d count the papers
    we d have a laugh at the people in their suits
    no one seemed...

    No me extrana nada

    No me extraña nada que te vayas,
    Hace tanto tiempo que no vas en mí...
    Has mudado el alma tuya de destino y adivino que esta vez no volverás...

    No me extraña nada...
    No me extraña nada... que te vayas...

    Nada, nada, nada, no me extraña nada de...

    Pussy cat

    Pussy cat
    I call my baby pussy cat
    She drives me wild
    When I m with her
    She makes me purr
    But I love her like that
    She s my pussy cat
    Such a crazy pussy cat
    And when the [child] begins...

    Z tobą byłbym więcej wart

    teraz wiem że gdybym mógł
    wybrać tylko jedną z dróg

    nawet jeśli miałbym kraść
    z tobą byłbym więcej wart /x2

    nie bój się
    już nie jestem
    tym kim byłem
    przemierzyłem prawie cały świat
    i zrozumiałem
    zrozumiałem
    nie jestem zły
    choć chciałem taki być
    zawsze myślałem
    tak będzie łatwiej

    gdybym wiedział to
    co dzisiaj wiem
    nie dokuczałby mi
    ten nieustający wstyd
    nieustający wstyd

    teraz wiem że gdybym mógł
    wybrać tylko jedną...
