Genesis - Harold The Barrel songtekst
Je score:
A well-known Bognor restaurant-owner disappeared early this morning Last seen in a mouse-brown overcoat, suitably camouflaged They saw him catch the train Man-in-the-street: "Father of three it's disgusting" "Such a horrible thing to do" Harold the Barrel cut off his toes and he served them all for tea "He can't go far" "He can't go far" "Hasn't got a leg to stand on" "He can't go far" Man-on-the-spot: I'm standing in a doorway on the main square tension is mounting There's a restless crowd of angry people Man-on-the-council: "More than we've ever seen - had to tighten up security" Over to the scene at the town hall The Lord Mayor's ready to speak Lord Mayor: "Man of suspicion, you can't last long When the British Public is on your side" British Public: "You can't last long" "You can't last long" "Said you couldn't trust him, his brother was just the same" "You can't last long" Harold: If I was many miles from here I'd be sailing in an open boat on the sea Instead I'm on this window ledge With the whole world below Up at the window Look at the window Mr. Plod: "We can help you" Plod's Chorus: "We can help you" Mr. Plod: "We're all your friends if you come on down and talk to us son" Harold: You must be joking Take a running jump The crowd was getting stronger and our Harold getting weaker Forwards, backwards, swaying side to side Fearing the very worst They called his mother to the site Up on the ledge beside him His mother made a last request 67-yr-old Mrs. Barrel: "Come off the ledge - if your father were alive he'd be very, very, very upset" "Just can't jump, you just can't jump" "Your shirt's all dirty and there's a man here from the BBC" "You just can't jump" Mr. Plod: "We can help you" Plod's Chorus: "We can help you" Mr. Plod: "We're all your friends if you come on down and talk to us Harry" Harold: You must be joking Take a running jump
