Testo Emily - Fools Garden

Testo della canzone Emily (Fools Garden), tratta dall'album Go and Ask Peggy for the Principal Thing

Emily's going out tonight
With a candle in her pocket
And a lighter in her right hand
Does anybody know where she's gonna go?
She's nearly out of sight
Emily's out tonight
So familiar, how ladylike the old girl comes along
She's ninety something, dressed up and wide awake
A little slow but going strong
She's paid off the overdraft
For the TV she has bought in '84
She's been paying all her lifetime
But now she's gonna pay no more
Deep religious, she went to mass on every Sunday morning
She's believing in God but she don't like
The priest, he's new in town and very boring
She's listened to his sermon well
Though she's heard the same one hundred times before
She has heard them all her lifetime
But now she's gonna listen anymore
She's gonna do it today
She's gonna make it today
She's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it
Baby, baby
Emily's going out tonight
With a candle in her pocket
And a lighter in her right hand
Does anybody know why she's gonna go away?
She's gonna make it today
She's very friendly and open-minded, always understanding
Bad behaviour she doesn't like at all
She's very modest, she's never been demanding
She's always followed every rule
Though she didn't even know what they've been for
She has followed all her lifetime
But now she's gonna follow anymore
She's gonna do it today
She's gonna make it today
She's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it
Baby, baby
She's gonna make the world go
Round and round and round and round, round
Round and round and round and round, round
Round and round and round and round, round
Round and round
She's gonna make it today
She's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it
Baby, baby
Emily's going out tonight
With a candle in her pocket
And a lighter in her right hand
Does anybody know why she's gonna go away?
Emily's going out tonight
With a candle in her pocket
And a lighter in her right hand
Does anybody know where she's gonna go today?
She's gonna go away, she's gonna go today
Emily's going out tonight
With a candle in her pocket
And a lighter in her right hand
Does anybody know where she's gonna go?
She's nearly out of sight
Emily's out tonight
