UNSETTLED SCORES[00:06:55]
[The Man[00:06:55]
There's a prayer for the living and the dying[00:06:55]
There's a prayer to soothe the savage sea[00:06:55]
There's a prayer it seems for almost everything[00:06:55]
But you, you haven't got a prayer for me[00:06:55]
And I, I haven't got a prayer[00:06:55]
So many cries in the night that you try to ignore[00:06:55]
Why didn't I do this ?, why didn't I do that ?[00:06:55]
So many unbroken chains, so many unsettled scores[00:06:55]
The old man at the bank that sneers[00:06:55]
The teachers and their slaps[00:06:55]
The brutal eyes, the uniforms[00:06:55]
The lawyers and their traps[00:06:55]
The lonely girls who yearn to love[00:06:55]
And learn to kiss and dance[00:06:55]
The rich and selfish widow[00:06:55]
In the market for romance[00:06:55]
The soldier with the smell of war[00:06:55]
That never fades away[00:06:55]
The hero on the playing fields[00:06:55]
Forgotten in a day[00:06:55]
The priest in the confessional[00:06:55]
The trembling hands and whispered sighs[00:06:55]
The doctors in the hospital[00:06:55]
Unending tests and twisted lies[00:06:55]
The betrayers, the betrayed[00:06:55]
The abandoned, the afraid[00:06:55]
The corrupted and the celebrated[00:06:55]
Endlessly humiliated[00:06:55]
Gloriously big parade[00:06:55]
You can say a prayer for everyone[00:06:55]
That there could ever be[00:06:55]
Say a prayer for all of these and more[00:06:55]
But there's still no prayer for me[00:06:55]
Say a prayer for your purest daughter[00:06:55]
Toll a bell for your only son[00:06:55]
There's no way out and all my prayers[00:06:55]
Are fading one by one[00:06:55]
The stern and disapproving lips[00:06:55]
The friends who just attack[00:06:55]
The fathers that they take away[00:06:55]
The ones that can't get back[00:06:55]
The desperate boy who sleeps alone[00:06:55]
Whoever's in his bed[00:06:55]
The chosen ones they get a home[00:06:55]
The blessed get ahead[00:06:55]
The kids out playing softball[00:06:55]
In the fading summer night[00:06:55]
The teenage lovers at the drive-in[00:06:55]
The glow of the dashboard light[00:06:55]
An American flyer on a steep incline[00:06:55]
The wind blowing through your hair[00:06:55]
The trophies and the holidays, they vanished in the air[00:06:55]
The betrayers the betrayed, the abandoned the afraid[00:06:55]
The glorified the idolised, the big shots and their jealous eyes[00:06:55]
An amazingly big parade[00:06:55]
You can say a prayer for anyone[00:06:55]
You've known or you might see[00:06:55]
Say a prayer for all of these and more[00:06:55]
But there's still no prayer for me[00:06:55]
Say a prayer for every living thing[00:06:55]
The unborn and deceased[00:06:55]
But I haven't got a prayer I know[00:06:55]
That's the nature of the beast[00:06:55]
