Trash Can Sinatras - Only Tongue Can Tell слова песни
Once upon a sign I read a warning and it said`When in Rome don`t feed the lions`What is meant I can`t hazard a guessBut now I`ve learnt my lesson I`m a better personI`m filled up with high hopes and I`m fed up with soft soapsLong in the tooth and short on wisdomUp to here with the ache of itAnd if the matchmaker calls hand in handWith a catch of the day I`ll rise to the baitBut it`ll still be more than a heart can takeMore than feeling greatMore than a tongue can tellI`d need to take leave of my senses to get a moment`s restFollowing in footstepsFootsure in fancy dressHead in my hands I`m making plansHoovering up for the dayWhen the matchmaker calls hand in handWith the catch of the day I`ll raise to the baitBut it`ll still be more then a heart can takeMore than feeling greatMore than a tongue can tellAnd the itch to get rich quickHas never been so hard to reachWith my hands tied behind my backShin deep in cement and sandJust like the anchor-man I broke looseAnd crashed to the sea bedClutching the shortest strawAnd if you threw me a line that`s as smart as you thinkIt wouldn`t stop me sinking down to cryOn what flashed before my eyes
