Life's For The Living (Anniversary Edition)歌词

[00:14.770] Well grey clouds wrapped round the town like elastic
[00:19.309] Cars stood like toys made of Taiwanese plastic
[00:23.069] The boy laughed at the spastic dancing around in the rain
[00:30.843] While laundrettes cleaned clothes, high heels rub toes
[00:34.827] Puddles splashed huddles of bus stop crows
[00:38.779] Dressed in their suits and their boots
[00:41.729] Well they all look the same
[00:46.743] I took myself down to the cafe to find all
[00:50.667] The boys lost in books and crackling vinyl
[00:54.562] And carved out a poem above the urinal that read
[01:02.428] Don't you cry for the lost
[01:04.633] Smile for the living
[01:06.821] Get what you need and give what you're given
[01:10.709] Life's for the living so live it
[01:14.038] Or you're better off dead
[01:30.392] While the evening pulled the moon out of it's packet
[01:34.897] Stars shone like buttons on an old man's jacket
[01:38.908] We needed a nail but we tacked it 'til it fell of the wall
[01:46.488] While pigeon's pecked trains, sparks flew like planes
[01:51.105] The rain showed the rainbows in the oil stains
[01:54.571] And we all had new iPhone's but no one had no one to call
[02:02.972] And I stumbled down to the stomach of the town
[02:06.619] Where the widow takes memories to slowly drown
[02:10.762] With a hand to the sky and a mist in her eye she said
[02:18.287] Don't you cry for the lost
[02:20.585] Smile for the living
[02:22.853] Get what you need and give what you're given
[02:27.059] Life's for the living so live it
[02:29.938] Or you're better off dead
[02:45.567] Or you're better off dead
[03:02.164] Well I'm sick of this town, this blind man's forage
[03:06.742] They take your dreams down and stick them in storage
[03:11.118] You can have them back son when you've paid off
[03:14.553] Your mortgage and loans
[03:18.636] Oh hell with this place, I'll go it my own way
[03:23.068] I'll stick out my thumb and I trudge down the highway
[03:27.268] Someday someone must be going my way home
[03:34.680] Till then I'll make my bed from a disused car
[03:39.084] With a mattress of leaves and a blanket of stars
[03:43.168] And I'll stitch the words into my heart with a needle and thread
[03:50.972] Don't you cry for the lost
[03:53.448] Smile for the living
[03:55.540] Get what you need and give what you're given
[03:59.566] You know life's for the living so live it
[04:02.574] Or you're better off dead
[04:06.572] Don't you cry for the lost
[04:09.681] Smile for the living
[04:11.762] Get what you need and give what you're given
[04:15.859] Life's for the living so live it
[04:18.751] Or you're better off dead
[04:23.672] Don't you cry for the lost
[04:25.925] Smile for the living
[04:28.193] Get what you need and give what you're given
[04:33.063] You know life's for the living so live it
[04:37.465] Or you're better off dead
