Jon Fratelli - Oh Shangri La

Текст песни

Hole in my head can’t sleep for dreaming
I’ll be checking out some day
No shades of red no room for breathing
No regrets no hours away
This jukebox won’t play no Sinatra
It just curses all night long
There’s no easy spoken mantra
Put me back where I belong
Late night parades a dreamers nightmare
And the boys are closing in
She’s got no good reason to be there
But her choices all seem slim
Well chaos reigns in this old thumb screw
Baffled lines of hers and his
Oh shangri la why can’t I find you
And your faded promises?
I’ve seen it in your eyes, a wanted man’s disguise
And a million bad highs
The lights have all gone red
The 4am dread
Then you made sense like the star that you are
Oh shangri la
One vicious love after another
A pointless nose, and shotgun shoes
Would someone please show me some other
Place to hang these dead boy blues
The landlord won’t place me an order
Well he don’t think that I should sleep
His wife just sings me to the border
But I can’t think of her as cheap
I’ve seen it in her eyes, a wanted man’s disguise
And a million bad highs
The lights have all gone red
The 4am dread
Then you made sense like the star that you are
Oh shangri la…
