Cindy Tells Me (2004 Digital Remaster)

Cindy Tells Me (2004 Digital Remaster) - Brian Eno

Cindy tells me the rich girls are weeping

Cindy tells me theyve given up sleeping alone

And now theyre so confused by their new freedoms

And she tells me theyre selling up their maisonettes

Left the hotpoints to rust in the kitchenettes

And theyre saving their labour for insane reading

Some of them lose - and some of them lose

But thats what they want - and thats what they choose

Its a burden - such a burden

Oh what a burden to be so relied on

Some of them lose and some of them lose

But that's what they want and that's what they choose

It's a burden such a burden

Oh what a burden to be so relied on

Cindy tells me what will they do with their lives

Living quietly like laborers' wives

Perhaps they'll re-acquire those things

They've all disposed of
