5
pushing through the market square
6
so many mothers sighing
7
news had just come over,
8
we had five years left to cry in
9
news guy wept and told us,
10
earth was really dying
11
cried so much, his face was wet,
12
then i knew, he was not lying
13
i heard telephones, opera house,
14
favorite melodies
15
i saw boys, toys, electric irons and tv's
16
my brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
17
i had to cram so many things to store,
18
everything in there
19
and all the fat-skinny people,
20
and all the tall-short people
21
and all the nobody people,
22
and all the somebody people
23
i never thought i'd need so many people
24
a girl of my age went off her head,
25
hit some tiny children
26
if the black hadn't a-pulled her off,
27
i think she would have killed them
28
a soldier with a broken arm
29
fixed his stare to the wheels of a cadillac
30
a cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
31
and a queer threw up at the sight of that
32
i think i saw you in an icecream parlour
33
drinking milkshakes cold and long
34
smiling and waving and looking so fine
35
i don't think you knew you were in this song
36
and it was cold and it raind,
37
so i felt like an actor
38
and i thought of ma and i wanted to get back there
39
your face, your race,
40
the way that you talk
41
i kiss you, you're beautiful,
42
i want you to walk
43
we've got five years,
44
stuck on my eyes, we've got five years,
45
what a surprise
46
we've got five years, my brain hurts a lot,
47
we've got five years, that's all we've got
48
we've got five years...
