Supersede - Jackie Greene (杰基·格林)[00:00:00]
Cookie cried for three days [00:00:17]
Until she couldn't cry no more[00:00:20]
She ate the fridge [00:00:24]
Jumped the bridge[00:00:27]
And wound up bloated on the shore[00:00:28]
The children they all pointed at[00:00:33]
Another painted score[00:00:37]
And somebody asked:[00:00:41]
“can I take a picture ”[00:00:43]
Well the heat down here is brutal [00:00:49]
It's hard to do what's right[00:00:53]
The locals shout[00:00:57]
That you won't burn out[00:00:59]
If you don't ever shine too bright[00:01:01]
And I wish[00:01:05]
I was in your back pocket[00:01:06]
Or in your bed tonight[00:01:09]
I wish that i was loud[00:01:14]
So you could hear me[00:01:16]
Oh no[00:01:22]
What else must I be [00:01:26]
It's all inside my head[00:01:30]
I guess but it just reminds me[00:01:33]
That I need you [00:01:37]
Honey I need you[00:01:40]
There ain't nobody[00:01:42]
Who could supersede you[00:01:44]
We're not such strangers [00:01:46]
So honey I need you right now[00:01:48]
Now all the streets are paved with petals [00:01:54]
The parade is coming through[00:01:58]
It kind of feels like royalty cause'[00:02:02]
Everyone's in blue[00:02:06]
And yellow flowers falling [00:02:10]
From a window too[00:02:15]
Falling to the feet of such a coward[00:02:19]
The mayor is kissing babies [00:02:26]
He's almost way too kind[00:02:31]
We're filled to the brim with honest men [00:02:35]
They're just way too hard to find[00:02:38]
So stare into his Public Eyes[00:02:43]
And watch his clock unwind[00:02:47]
Then find him old[00:02:51]
And drowning in the deep end[00:02:53]
Oh now[00:02:59]
What else must I see [00:03:03]
It's all inside my head[00:03:07]
I guess but it just reminds me[00:03:10]
That I need you [00:03:15]
Honey I need you[00:03:17]
There ain't nobody[00:03:19]
Who could supersede you[00:03:21]
We're not such strangers[00:03:23]
So honey i need you right now[00:03:25]
You see I long for a hickory morning[00:03:31]
With a waltz and trumpet flare[00:03:35]
I'm doing my best to recover[00:03:40]
From what time cannot repair[00:03:42]
And i'm sick of all this solitude[00:03:47]
And pre-rehearsed despair[00:03:52]
My eyes are a hundred miles away from sleeping[00:03:56]
Well I wish you'd write a letter [00:04:04]
Or telephone to me[00:04:08]
This place is dark and there ain't[00:04:12]
A spark of who I used to be[00:04:15]
So the sick hearts of the unloved[00:04:19]
Tell the brave souls of the sea:[00:04:23]
“we're all closed up [00:04:27]
Why don't you come back when we're open ”[00:04:29]
Oh no[00:04:36]
What else must I be [00:04:40]
It's all inside my head[00:04:44]
I guess but it just reminds me[00:04:46]
That I need you honey I need you[00:04:51]
There ain't nobody[00:04:56]
Who could supersede you[00:04:57]
We're not such strangers[00:05:00]
So honey I need you right now[00:05:02]
There's a cracked and pale mirror [00:05:08]
Hanging on my wall[00:05:12]
The church bell rings and the choir sings[00:05:16]
And I can hear it from the hall[00:05:20]
Now you might not believe it [00:05:24]
But there was no fire at all[00:05:28]
We just danced[00:05:32]
For seven days wishing for water[00:05:33]
Maria tells the fortunes [00:05:39]
They line around the bend[00:05:44]
A dollar for your problems [00:05:48]
And five to know the end[00:05:52]
They come from miles around;[00:05:56]
Just like a pack of howling men[00:05:59]
I wonder what she does with all that money[00:06:04]
Oh now[00:06:12]
What else must i be [00:06:16]
It's all inside my head i guess [00:06:20]
But it just reminds me[00:06:24]
That I need you honey I need you[00:06:27]
There ain't nobody[00:06:32]
Who could supersede you[00:06:33]
We're not such strangers [00:06:36]
So honey I need you right now[00:06:38]
Simple sidewalk painter [00:06:44]
Says his life is such a bore[00:06:48]
Spends his time with a jug of wine[00:06:52]
And a palette on the floor[00:06:56]
He screams: “Heaven Take my eyes [00:07:00]
Cause I can't paint no more ”[00:07:03]
Honey sometimes[00:07:08]
I feel just like his colors[00:07:08]
I'm gonna go down to the ocean [00:07:15]
I gonna to fill my boots with sand[00:07:20]
So the next time that you see me [00:07:24]
I'll be a much more grounded man[00:07:27]
So go and do whatever it is you do[00:07:31]
And I'll do what I can[00:07:36]
And when we meet again[00:07:40]
You can try to know me[00:07:42]
Oh no[00:07:48]
What else must I be [00:07:52]
It's all inside my head[00:07:56]
I guess but it just reminds me[00:07:58]
That I need you honey I need you[00:08:03]
There ain't nobody[00:08:07]
Who could supersede you[00:08:09]
We're not such strangers[00:08:11]
So honey I need you right now[00:08:13]
They call me pessimistic [00:08:35]
But it occured to me[00:08:39]
That babies are all born crying[00:08:43]
And dying is never free[00:08:47]
But I still can't shake that feeling [00:08:50]
That Somebody's watching me [00:08:55]
I just thought that I would tell you[00:08:59]
