What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Gonna rent myself a house in the shade of the freeway
2
I'm gonna pack my lunch in the morning and go to work each day
3
And when the evening rolls around
4
I'll go on home and lay my body down
5
And when the morning light comes streaming in
6
I'll get up and do it again
7
Amen
8
I wanna know what became of the changes we waited for love to bring
9
Were they only the fitful dreams of each others awakening
10
I've been aware of the time going by
11
They say the end is the wink of an eye
12
And when the morning light comes streaming in
13
We'll get up and do it again
14
Amen
15
Caught between the longing for love and the struggle for the legal tender
16
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
17
And the junk man pounds his fender
18
Where the veterans dream of the fight
19
Fast asleep at the traffic light
20
And the children solemnly wait for the ice cream vender
21
Out into the cool of the evening strools the pretender
22
He knows that all his hopes and dreams begin and end there
23
I'm gonna find myself a boy who can show me what laughter means
24
And we'll fill in the missing colors of each others paint by number dreams
25
And then we'll put our dark glasses on
26
And we'll make love until our strenghth is gone
27
And when the morning light comes streaming in
28
We'll get up and do it again
29
Do it again
30
I'm gonna be a happy idiot struggle for the legal tender
31
Where the eyes take aim
32
And lay their claim to the heart and the sole of the spender
33
And believe in whatever may lie
34
And those things the money can buy
35
Your true love could have been a contender
36
Are you there
37
Say a prayer for the pretender
38
Who started out so young and stong
39
Only to surrender
40
Ahh
41
The laughter of the lovers as they run through the night
42
Leaving nothing for the others but to choose off and fight
43
And chilling the world with all their might
44
While the ships, barring their dreams, sail out of sight
45
Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Say a prayer for the pretender
46
Say a prayer, Say a prayer for the pretender
47
[Ahh the lovers as they run through the night]
48
Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Say a prayer for the pretender
49
Say a prayer, Say a prayer
50
Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Say a prayer for the pretender
51
Say a prayer, Say a prayer, Saya prayer for the pretender
52
Say a prayer for the pretender
53
Gonna rent myself a house in the shade of the freeway
54
I'm gonna pack my lunch in the morning and go to work each day
55
And when the evening rolls around
56
I'll go on home and lay my body down
57
And when the morning light comes streaming in
58
I'll get up and do it again
59
Amen
