| [00:02.16] |
Standing on the waters casting your bread |
| [00:04.48] |
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing. |
| [00:10.23] |
|
| [00:12.93] |
Distant ships sailing into the mist' |
| [00:15.55] |
You were born with a snake in both of |
| [00:18.36] |
your fists while a hurricane was blowing. |
| [00:21.11] |
|
| [00:23.13] |
Freedom just around the corner for you |
| [00:28.38] |
|
| [00:29.57] |
But with the truth so far off' what good will it do? |
| [00:34.82] |
|
| [00:37.13] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [00:40.76] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [00:44.33] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [00:49.33] |
|
| [00:51.89] |
So swiftly the sun sets in the sky' |
| [00:55.58] |
You rise up and say goodbye to no one. |
| [00:59.83] |
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread' |
| [01:05.77] |
Both of their futures' so full of dread' you don't show one. |
| [01:11.04] |
|
| [01:13.47] |
Shedding off one more layer of skin' |
| [01:18.10] |
|
| [01:19.79] |
Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within. |
| [01:23.91] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [01:30.85] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [01:34.41] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [01:40.11] |
|
| [01:41.36] |
You're a man of the mountains' you can walk on the clouds' |
| [01:44.80] |
Manipulator of crowds' you're a dream twister. |
| [01:49.55] |
|
| [01:51.80] |
You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah |
| [01:53.93] |
But what do you care? Ain't nobody there would want to marry your sister. |
| [02:00.61] |
|
| [02:03.11] |
Friend to the martyr' a friend to the woman of shame' |
| [02:09.55] |
You look into the fiery furnace' see the rich man without any name. |
| [02:15.18] |
|
| [02:17.11] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [02:20.61] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [02:24.11] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [02:30.43] |
|
| [02:41.55] |
Well' the Book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy' |
| [02:45.40] |
The law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers. |
| [02:50.71] |
|
| [02:52.15] |
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed' |
| [02:56.34] |
Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features. |
| [03:01.45] |
|
| [03:03.33] |
Resting in the fields' far from the turbulent space' |
| [03:08.27] |
|
| [03:09.83] |
Half asleep near the stars with a small dog licking your face. |
| [03:15.02] |
|
| [03:17.40] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [03:20.90] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [03:24.14] |
Oh. oh. oh. Jokerman. |
| [03:30.96] |
|
| [03:41.89] |
Well' the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame' |
| [03:45.58] |
Preacherman seeks the same' who'll get there first is uncertain. |
| [03:50.39] |
|
| [03:52.83] |
Nightsticks and water cannons' tear gas' padlocks' |
| [03:56.27] |
Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain' |
| [04:01.27] |
|
| [04:03.39] |
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin' |
| [04:08.97] |
|
| [04:09.78] |
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in. |
| [04:14.91] |
|
| [04:17.28] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [04:20.85] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [04:24.35] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [04:30.03] |
|
| [04:41.85] |
It's a shadowy world' skies are slippery gray' |
| [04:45.66] |
A woman just gave birth to a prince today and dressed him in scarlet. |
| [04:52.47] |
He'll put the priest in his pocket' put the blade to the heat' |
| [04:56.16] |
Take the motherless children off the street |
| [04:58.72] |
And place them at the feet of a harlot. |
| [05:02.85] |
|
| [05:03.41] |
Oh' Jokerman' you know what he wants' |
| [05:10.54] |
Oh' Jokerman' you don't show any response. |
| [05:16.60] |
|
| [05:17.41] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [05:20.91] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [05:24.66] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
