Five Years
4
Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing
5
News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in
6
News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying
7
Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying
8
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
9
I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
10
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
11
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
12
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
13
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
14
I never thought I'd need so many people
15
A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children
16
If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them
17
A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
18
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that
19
I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long
20
Smiling and waving and looking so fine, don't think
21
you knew you were in this song
22
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
23
And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
24
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
25
I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk
26
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
27
Five years, what a surprise
28
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
29
Five years, that's all we've got
30
We've got five years, what a surprise
31
Five years, stuck on my eyes
32
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
33
Five years, that's all we've got
34
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
35
Five years, what a surprise
36
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
37
Five years, that's all we've got
38
We've got five years, what a surprise
39
We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
40
We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
41
Five years, that's all we've got
