Testo Children's Story - Tom Waits
Testo della canzone Children's Story (Tom Waits), tratta dall'album Orphans
Once upon a time there was a poor child with no father and no mother
And everything was dead, and no one was left in the whole world
Everything was dead
And the child went and searched day and night, and since nobody
Was left on the earth, he wanted to go up into the heavens
And the moon was looking at him so friendly, and when he
Finally got to the moon, the moon was a piece of rotten wood
And then he went to the sun, and when he
Got there, the sun was a wilted sunflower
And when he got to the stars, they were little golden flies
Stuck up there like the shrike sticks 'em on the blackthorn
And when he wanted to go back down to earth
The earth was an overturned piss pot
And he was all alone
And he sat down and he cried
And he is there to this day
All alone
Okay, there's your story
Night-night
