Five Years (五年) - The Postmarks[00:00:00]
Pushing through the market square[00:00:11]
So many mothers sighing[00:00:15]
News had just come over[00:00:20]
We had five years left to cry in[00:00:23]
News guy wept and told us[00:00:29]
Earth was really dying[00:00:33]
Cried so much his face was wet[00:00:37]
Then I knew he was not lying[00:00:41]
I heard telephones[00:00:46]
Opera house favorite melodies[00:00:48]
I saw boys toys[00:00:51]
Electric irons and TV's[00:00:53]
My brain hurt like a warehouse[00:00:56]
It had no room to spare[00:00:58]
I had to cram so many things[00:01:00]
To store everything in there[00:01:02]
And all the fat skinny people[00:01:04]
And all the tall short people[00:01:08]
And all the nobody people[00:01:13]
And all the somebody people[00:01:17]
I never thought I'd need so many people[00:01:21]
A girl my age went off her head[00:01:29]
Hit some tiny children[00:01:34]
If the black hadn't pulled her off[00:01:39]
I think she would have killed them[00:01:42]
A soldier with a broken arm[00:01:48]
Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac[00:01:51]
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest[00:01:56]
And a queer threw up at the sight of that[00:02:00]
I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlor[00:02:06]
Drinking milk shakes cold and long[00:02:11]
Smiling and waving and looking so fine[00:02:14]
Don't think you knew you were in this song[00:02:19]
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor[00:02:23]
And I thought of ma and I wanted to get back there[00:02:28]
Your face your race the way that you talk[00:02:33]
I kiss you you're beautiful I want you to walk[00:02:37]
We've got five years stuck on my eyes[00:02:41]
Five years what a surprise[00:02:47]
We've got five years my brain hurts a lot[00:02:51]
Five years that's all we've got[00:02:55]
We've got five years what a surprise[00:03:00]
Five years stuck on my eyes[00:03:04]
We've got five years my brain hurts a lot[00:03:06]
Five years that's all we've got[00:03:15]
We've got five years stuck on my eyes[00:03:18]
Five years what a surprise[00:03:24]
We've got five years my brain hurts a lot[00:03:28]
Five years that's all we've got[00:03:32]
We've got five years stuck on my eyes[00:03:37]
We've got five years my brain hurts a lot[00:03:45]
Five years that's all we've got[00:03:51]
