Genesis - Harold The Barrel слова песни
News:
A well-known Bognor restaurant-owner disappeared
early this morning.
Last seen in a mouse-brown overcoat,
suitably camouflaged,
they saw him catch a train.
Man-in-the-street:
"Father of three its disgusting"
"Such a horrible thing to do"
Harold the Barrel cut off his toes and he served them all
for tea
"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, the British Public
is on our side"
British Public:
"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 sight
Upon 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, there`s a man here from
the B.B.C."
"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......
