The Stranglers - Wet Afternoon lyrics
Your rating:
Hands around a circle In the candlelight Now a childlike voice comes From the other side There behind the curtain I saw something move I couldn't tell for certain Maybe it was you She wants to speak to daddy But daddy doesn't come We only try to help her We mean nobody harm Keeping dry on a wet afternoon This is no place for tears The table turns on a wet afternoon God has mighty powers No one can explain He chose us for his agents To help our fellow man They say it's an illusion What we do in here And for the richest pocket We are the most sincere Repeat chorus Someone's pulled the curtains All the lights turned out Taps upon the table In an empty house
