jam - Wasteland слова песни




WASTELAND - Paul WellerMeet me on the wastelands - later this day,We`ll sit and talk and hold hands maybe,For there`s not much else to do in this drab and colourless place.We`ll sit amongst the rubber tyres,Amongst the discarded bric-a-brac - people have no use for,Amongst the smouldering embers of yesterday.And when or if the sun shines,Lighting our once beautiful features,We`ll smile, but only for seconds,For to be caught smiling`s to acknowledge life,A brave but useless show of compassion,And that is forbidden in this drab and colourless world.Meet me on the wastelands - the ones behind,The old houses - the ones left standing pre-war -The ones overshadowed by those monolith monstrosities - councils call homesAnd there amongst the shit - the dirty linen,The holy Coca-Cola tins - the punctured footballs,the ragged dolls - the rusting bicycles,We`ll sit and probably hold hands.And watch the rain fall - watch it, watch it -Tumble and fall - tumble and falling -Like our lives - like our lives -Just like our lives.We`ll talk about the old days,When the wasteland was release, when we could play,And think - without feeling guilty -Meet me later but we`ll have to hold hands.Tumble and fall - tumble and falling -Like our lives - like our lives -Exactly like our lives.BURNING SKY - Paul Weller(Dear,)How are things in your little world, I hope they`re going well andyou are too. Do you still see the same old crowd, the ones who usedto meet every Friday? I`m really sorry that I can`t be there, butwork comes first, I`m sure you`ll understand. Things are reallytaking off for me, business is thriving and I`m showing a profit and.And in any case it wouldn`t be the same, `cause we`ve all grown upand we`ve got our own lives and the values that we had once upon atime, seem stupid now `cause the rent must be paid and some bondssevered and others made.Now I don`t want you to get me wrong, ideals are fine when you areyoung and I must admit we had a laugh, but that`s all it was and everwill be, `cause the Burning Sky keeps burning bright. And as long asit does (and it always will), there`s no time for dreams whencommerce calls. And the taxman`s shouting `cause he wants his doughand the wheels of finance won`t begin to slow.And it`s only us realists who are gonna come through `cause there`sonly one power higher than that of truth and that`s the Burning Sky.Oh and by the way I must tell you, before I sign off I`ve got ameeting next week, with the head of a big corporate. I can`t disclosewho but I`m sure you all know him, and. And the Burning Sky - keepsburning bright - And it won`t turn off til it`s had enough, it`s thegreedy bastard who won`t give up, and you`re just a dreamer if youdon`t realise, and the sooner you do will be the better for you. Andthen we`ll all be happy and we`ll all be wise. And we`ll all bowdown to the Burning Sky.Then we`ll all be happy and we`ll all be wise, and together we willlive beneath the Burning Sky.THICK AS THIEVES - Paul WellerTimes were so tough, but not as tough as they are now.We were so close and nothing came between us - and the world -No personal situations.Thick as thieves us, we`d stick together for all time,And we meant it, but it turns out just for a while,We stole - the friendship that bound us together -We stole from the schools and thier libraries,We stole from the drugs that sent us to sleep,We stole from the drink that made us sick,We stole anything that we couldn`t keep.And it was enough - we didn`t have to spoil anything,And always be as thick as thieves.Like a perfect stranger - you came into my life,Then like the perfect lone ranger - you run away, run away, run away, run away, hey!We stole the love from young girls in ivory towers,We stole autumn leaves and summer showers,We stole the silent wind that says you are free,We stole everything that we could see.But it wasn`t enough - and now we`ve gone and spoiled everything -Now we`re no longer as thick as thieves.You came into my life -Then like a perfect stranger you walked away - walked away, walked away, walked awayThick as thieves us - we`d stick together for all time,and we meant it, but it turns out just for awhile.We stole the friendship that bound us together.We stole the burning sun in the open sky,We stole the twinkling stars in the black night,We stole the green belt fields that made us believe,We stole everything that we could see.But something came along that changed our minds,And I don`t know what, and I don`t know why -But we seemed to grow up in a flash of time,and we watched our ideals helplessly unwind.No - we`re no longer as thick as thieves - no.We`re not as thick as we used to be - no.We`re no longer as thick as thieves - no,We`re not as thick as we used to be -No it wasn`t enough - and we`ve gone and spoiled everythingNow we`re no longer as thick as thieves.
