Barenaked Ladies - When I Fall слова песни
I look straight in the window, try not to look belowPretend I`m not up here, try counting sheepBut the sheep seem to shower off this office towerIt’s nine-point-eight straight down, I can`t stop my kneesChorus:I wish I could flyFrom this buildingFrom this wallAnd if I should tryWould you catch me if I fall?My hands clench the squeegee, my secular rosaryHang on to your wallet, hang on to your ringsI can`t look below me, or something to throw meI curse at the windstorms that October bringsI look in the boardroom; a modern pharaoh`s tombI`d gladly swap places, if they care to diveThey`re lined up at the window, peer down into limboThey`re frightened of jumping, in case they surviveI wish I could step from this scaffoldOnto soft green pastures, shopping malls, or bedWith my family and my pastor and my grandfather who`s deadLook straight in the mirror, watch it come clearerI look like a painter, behind all the greaseBut painting`s creating, and I`m just erasingA crystal-clear canvas is my masterpiece(Chorus)(Chorus)When I fallWhen I fallWhen I fall
