"Story" lyrics
"Story"
Once upon a time there was a poor child
With no father and no mother
And everything was dead
And no one was left in the whole world
Everything was dead
And the child went on search day and night
And since nobody was left on the earth
He wanted to go up into the heavens
And the moon was looking at him so friendly
And when he finally got to the moon
The moon was a piece of rotten wood
And then he went to the sun
And when he got there
The sun was a wilted sunflower
And when he got to the stars
They were little golden flies
Stuck up there like the shrike
Sticks 'em on a blackthorn
And when he wanted to go back down to earth
The earth was an overturned piss pot
And he was all alone
He sat down and he cried
And he is there till this day
All alone
Okay there's your story
Night night

It's just not the same no more
The game before was real to me
My love
You talk of so many things
I'll never seen
I guess I've seen it all
Who knows
How I could fall so far
All I know is...
Crosby & Nash - "Lay Me Down" Driving out through the windmills
And some of them were still
Sometimes it's hard to catch the wind
And bend it to your will
Even though it's hard to know
Just how the story ends
The road is long...

Now they've closed the old home down
And everybody's let you down?
But you're the beauty of the town
Baby, don't get hung up in your soul
Don't let 'em make your heart grow old...
Iggy Pop - "Only The Lonely" Each place I go only the lonely go
Some little small cafe
The songs I know only the lonely know
Each melody recalls a love that used to be
The dreams I dream only the lonely dream
Of lips as warm as...
