歌曲 | Back Back Back |

专辑 | To the Teeth |
作词 : DiFranco | |
Back back back in the back of your mind | |
Are you learning an angry language, | |
Tell me boy boy boy are you tending to your joy | |
Or are you just letting it vanquish | |
Back back back in the dark of your mind | |
Where the eyes of your demons are gleamin | |
Are you mad mad mad | |
About the life you never had | |
Even when you are dreaming. | |
Who are these old old people | |
In these nursing homes | |
Scowling away at nothing | |
Like big rag dolls just cursing at the walls | |
And pulling out all of their stuffing | |
Every day is a door leading back to the core | |
Yes, old age will distill you | |
An dif you're this this this full of bitterness now | |
Some day it will just fill you | |
When you sit righ tdown in the middle of yourself | |
You're gonna wanna have a comfortable chair | |
So renovate your soul before you get too old | |
Cuz you'r egonna be housebound there | |
When you're old you fold up like an envelope | |
And you mail yourself right inside | |
And there's nowhere to go | |
Except out real slow | |
Are you ready, boy, for that ride? | |
Your arrogance is gaining on you | |
And so is eternity | |
You better practice happiness | |
You better practice humility | |
You took the air, you took the time | |
You were fed and you were free | |
Now you'd better put some beauty back | |
While you got the energy | |
You'd better put some beauty back, boy | |
While you got the energy |
