Testo Broken English - Eddie Berman

Testo della canzone Broken English (Eddie Berman), tratta dall'album Broken English

We beg we steal and pray

Hallucinate

'Neath your marbled columns

With hearts that are made to bleed

The trick's to need 'em

But never want 'em

Our minds and backs grew soft

So you paid us off

With the shadow promise

That we could be like you

If our aim was true

And your boots got polished

We emerge from the forests we burn

With the smoke in our eyes

But it's onward we march

There's no use in us looking behind

No we're just looking for something

To kill all this goddamn time

So we build pretty machines

That could stand

Between us and our lives

And at once, just like a dream

With a violent scream

A white falcon landed

We knew, right there and then

This was the end

We're either saved or stranded

So we lay at the altar

Of vanishing windows and words

But we don't know if it's Satan or God

Who's appeared as this bird

But anything that's unknown

Or unowned by us is a curse

So whatever it is

It should be killed

And stuffed in our purse

There's too much to say

Can't be explained

In my Broken English

Except that you and me

And what lays between us

Can't be distinguished

So if it's all an abstraction

A worthless distraction by you

Where every word's lost its meaning

But still doesn't stop getting used

And all our method of thinking

Keep sinking away from the truth

We'll be gone and forgotten

Our one final offering to you

'Cause goddamn

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be any-- Goddamn!

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all, man

Don't you want us to be

Anything at all
