[00:17.490] |
Well he's out of season, out of sync |
[00:20.590] |
Oh lord, what must his family think? |
[00:22.890] |
And you must be getting his feathers wet |
[00:26.550] |
Plus he always seems to be the talk |
[00:28.790] |
Until she drops you like a rock |
[00:31.000] |
Well you should've been a better friend to him |
[00:35.100] |
Well I dusted all the bones out in my yard |
[00:36.790] |
I fixed the screen door, raised the barn |
[00:38.690] |
But still you call me from the moon |
[00:40.790] |
Every single afternoon |
[00:43.100] |
Tell me all about the astronauts you've come to love |
[00:45.890] |
And how the earth looks from above |
[00:47.000] |
And how I should've been a better friend to you |
[00:54.020] |
But I've never seen life as a chore |
[00:57.890] |
A treasure for a find |
[01:02.290] |
I've read the news, abused the booze |
[01:07.100] |
And often wondered why |
[01:11.200] |
My smile remains the thinking pains |
[01:14.800] |
The average passerby |
[01:18.200] |
Oh they'll sink like stones into their homes |
[01:23.900] |
Away from teeth like mine |
[01:45.800] |
Yes, so I came to hate my skin |
[01:49.200] |
And all the holes you'd hidden in |
[01:51.000] |
The way you let my legs walk slow weeks away |
[01:54.500] |
I wish I - |
[01:58.200] |
Well, you should've been a better friend of mine |
[02:02.700] |
Well I saw in you a brand new bird |
[02:05.100] |
The song of which I'd never heard |
[02:07.200] |
Oh, a melody so fine |
[02:09.200] |
That whole world would whine |
[02:11.100] |
And it's a tune to give the boys the blues |
[02:13.700] |
And turn the horses into glue |
[02:15.500] |
You know, I should've been a better friend to you |
[02:19.100] |
Yeah, I should've been a better friend to you |
[02:25.100] |
Well, I've never seen life as a chore |
[02:30.700] |
Or a treasure for to find |
[02:35.000] |
I've read the news, abused the booze |
[02:39.100] |
And often wondered why |
[02:43.100] |
Oh my smile remains the thinking pains |
[02:47.200] |
The average passerby |
[02:51.300] |
They'll sink like stones into their homes |
[02:55.800] |
Away from teeth like mine |
[03:21.200] |
Yeah, you should've been a better friend of mine |
[03:24.700] |
Yeah, you should've been a better friend of mine |
