"Theme From 'Likely Stories'" lyrics
(from "Likely Stories" soundtrack)
Round heads and covered ears
Adult themes and childhood fears
Unworthy winners and bad losers
All-night cafes and self-abusers
A baby in a jar
An old man in a car
A flame that beneath this room
A cow jumped over the moon
And other likely stories
Soft electric care
The girl was never really there
There wasn't a woman who swallowed the cat
Or do you think of that
Children's games and lovers' tiffs
Home truths and urban myths
A half-forgotten nursery rhyme
From a different place and time
And other likely stories
Adult themes and childhood fears
Unworthy winners and bad losers
All-night cafes and self-abusers
A baby in a jar
An old man in a car
A flame that beneath this room
A cow jumped over the moon
And other likely stories
Soft electric care
The girl was never really there
There wasn't a woman who swallowed the cat
Or do you think of that
Children's games and lovers' tiffs
Home truths and urban myths
A half-forgotten nursery rhyme
From a different place and time
And other likely stories
