Scatman John - Quiet Desperation songtekst

Je score:

You're sitting on a milk mornin' noon and night 
Fantisizin' the American dream
You're lookin' pretty good and you've got yourself conviced
That the nightmare isn't a s bad  as it seems
You try your best to hide yourself beneath your turned up collar
And a plastic bag is all you've got to show
And your books inside your shopping cart
Is probably the best education you're ever gonna know (Hmm)

Better grab it 'cause the signal's turnin' green
The guy in the Mercedes is just hard on with the dollar
And while you're at it put the jug behind the picket fence
'Cause the copper's driving past  you lookin' mean
Institution,contribution,restitution,destitution 
Doesn't mean a thing to you now
You're the freeway feature 
For your audience are driving by
So maybe you should stand and take a bow
Your living in desperation
And you never have felt complete

You live in anticipation
Of another day on the street,sing with me

You want to go home
You're sitting in the same spot

But there ain't no home but home on the range
That the look inside your eye is very strange
Ain't nothing left to hide
You've forgotten what you look like and it looks like you've forgotten
You're stripped of all your pride and all you feel inside
You're the freedom desperado
Is a hole a mile wide 
And the perfect living model 

Of a land that hasn't any good excuse
Your living in desperation
You live in anticipation
And you never have felt complete
Of another day on the street,sing with me

Sittin' on your milkcrate ,blanket wrapped around you
I see you sitting day after day
I really like to talk but I know if I approached you
You're wishin' that your home of the American dream 
You'd probably get up and walk away
Wasn't only smoke and exhaust 
I love you desperado and all I gotta say
You let me know how much I really lost

Your living in desperation
And you never have felt complete

You live in anticipation
Of another day on the street,sing with me

And you never have felt complete
Your living in desperation
You live in anticipation
Of another day on the street,sing with me
