Текст песни Fish - Credo
Fish - Credo слова песни
(Dick/Simmonds/Boult/Usher)
I watch the TV every night,
I stay awake by satellite,
I hope and pray the nightmares,
Stay away today.
An oily shroud on a coral reef,
A black cloud`s hanging over me.
When I hit on the remote,
The programmes stay the same.
Credo, credo, credo, credo.
An assegai slick with sweat and blood,
A shotgun barks at a rabid dog,
A shallow grave hugs a highway,
Beneath a bleaching sun.
chorus:
Credo, credo, credo, credo,
It don`t mean nothin`; it don`t mean nothin`
It don`t mean nothin`; it don`t mean nothin` to me.
When cancer sucks a young girl`s breast.
When a company chains a young man`s soul
When the coal dust stole
My grandad`s breath away.
(chorus)
A tattered tramp tacks a windy wynd,
To close a crowded circle a brazier`s light,
A man becomes a mountain, in the falling snow.
A mother screams and a baby cries.
The memory gone before the blood has dried.
A needle pricks the conscience,
To help it fade away.
(chorus)
The more you scream, the less you hear,
Or that`s how it used to be.
But I just can`t tell the difference
Anymore these days.
The open lips of an alter[1] boy,
A planet spins in a silent void,
The options are ever fewer
On the ground these days
(chorus)
[1] sic. Is this supposed to be altar? This is how it appears
on the lyric sheet.
