The Walkabouts

The Walkabouts - Life: The Movie songtekst

Je score:

Why do you whisper
It's true, true lovers whisper
Or don't say anything at all

The greatest story never told
Both of us are feeling old
Been feeling everything
And nothing much

Look beyond
Past the cities edge
Where the horizon dips
And all the strip mall hookers
Show promotion clips
And life: the movie
Portrays us working stiffs

As wastrels on
Watch ourselves again
On some wasted trip
Giving up on love
Just for the fuck of it
Oh life: the movie,
So easy to forget

The angels and aliens are restless
Ain't gonna stay
They're counting down the days
'Til they leave us alone
Can't see them anyway

Electric colors cut a swath
But leave no trace
Why do we advertise
That we have lost the race?
If we were proud, we'd hide

But since we've lost
Watch ourselves again
Let's call the whole thing off

Life: the movie ends
When the villain says
That he will apprehend
But then rides off instead

Let us drown in peace
Life: the movie, showing
Six and one-half days a week
Life: the movie ending
When they kicked us hard
To make sure we're dead
And not just dreaming

The truth of our lies
The thrill of our wrongs
Are these the last things on earth
That still turn us on?

And in a crash
We'll feel the flash
Don't forget to breathe
Don't forget to laugh

Look beyond
Watch ourselves again
Life: the movie's on
In every single town
Life: the movie plays
'Til we finally beg
Let us bleed all day
Let us bleed all day

The last hurrah
A forecast of our times
I refuse to fall
You'll choose t' just go blind
When life: the movie plays
I'll turn away
I'll put out my eyes
