Another Night's Broken Glass - Latin Quarter[00:00:00]
Written by:Steve Skaith[00:00:00]
Another night's broken glass[00:00:28]
What was it this time[00:00:30]
Was it the last of the free gift champagne flutes[00:00:33]
From the filling station[00:00:36]
Was it the wedding present tray[00:00:39]
Engraved 'Congratulations'[00:00:42]
Was it the snow scene coliseum[00:00:45]
From Corinne's room[00:00:48]
Must have been most of the downstairs lights[00:00:51]
Judging by the gloom[00:00:53]
Or the wall clock or the mixing bowl[00:00:57]
Or the living room's sliding door[00:01:00]
No it must have been the mirror[00:01:03]
We can't see ourselves anymore[00:01:06]
Another night's broken glass hey[00:01:12]
Watch where you're walking[00:01:14]
Take a deep breath before you sweep the mess[00:01:17]
Break out the sticking plaster[00:01:20]
Retrieve the bracket from the timepiece[00:01:23]
Is it ticking faster[00:01:26]
As the vacuum sucks the splinters in[00:01:29]
They tear the sack[00:01:32]
Oh the ship's broken out of the bottle[00:01:35]
And it won't be sailing back[00:01:37]
Not to this typhoon to this River Plate[00:01:41]
To this act of piracy[00:01:44]
Where all the salty renegades are really you and me[00:01:47]
A man is a ship of glass[00:01:53]
Tossed in a sea of terror[00:01:56]
We don't need these metaphysics spelling out the error the error[00:01:59]
As you crack a composition[00:02:05]
Of soda lime and sand[00:02:07]
And you curse the old Phoenicians[00:02:11]
As it cuts into you hand[00:02:14]
Another night's broken glass[00:02:29]
What was it this time[00:02:31]
Another night's broken glass[00:02:35]
What was it this time[00:02:37]
Was it the snow scene coliseum from Corinne's room[00:02:40]
Must have been most of the downstairs lights[00:02:46]
Judging by the gloom[00:02:49]
Or the wall clock or the mixing bowl[00:02:53]
Or the living room's sliding door[00:02:55]
No it must have been the mirror[00:02:58]
We can't see ourselves anymore[00:03:01]
Another night's broken glass[00:03:08]
