John Wesley Harding - Skyscrapers in Memphis слова песни




They say that the dead live foreverAnd round here well they probably doIf you stand by the gates outside gracelandYou can watch all the dead coming throughIts necropolis and welcome to itIts an archaeological findTheyll be digging up this town foreverTheyll be digging up this empty mineThe indians stand on the scaffoldTheyve taken the egyptians placeThe pharaohs and the politiciansAre planning their perfect escapeSo they build a memorial towerLike the ancient texts said that they wouldBut stories arent told by the victimsAnd thats why this storys so goodHave you seen the skyscrapers in memphisDo you see how they rise like the sunAnd the statues they look just like spacemenLooking down on everyoneAnd theres art by the yard in the hallwaysAnd our houses are made out of slimeBut the skyscrapers almost touch heavenDid we escape from the mud this time? So look at the bar-chart skylineAnd look at the graph on the wallBut dont you ignore the bylineWhen the headline says "empire falls"The buildings get stranger and tallerTil we see that sphinx up on marsSo prepare your most pertinent questionsBut please dont expect any answersOne last look round the museumThe one where the bullets still flyBut dont blink if you wish to see themPuncture the mummys good eyeAs the lift hits the five figure numbersThe relics of ages long goneThe tomb of the unknown protest singerThe computer of king tutankhamunHave you seen the skyscrapers in memphisDo you see how they rise like the sunAnd the statues they look just like spacemenLooking down on everyoneAnd theres art by the yard in the hallwaysAnd our houses are made out of slimeBut the skyscrapers they almost touch heavenDid we escape from the mud this time?
