Pay for the Piano 歌詞
People my people
The cat in the steeple
And everyone here I need your ear so be cool for a few
I feel a funny emotion a negative notion
A tear in the air an unseen stare
If I'm wrong then I'm wrong
What I say
Senors and senoras
They cannot ignore us
We know that they know the score
It's there at the core always been
And we could give it up all nice
Or put it on cold ice
While that could suffice
I give these dreams up in hell ring a bell
What I say
Somebody's got to pay for the piano
Somebody's got to make sure we honor everyone
I know if we can forfeit all our sorrow
It may as well be us
People my people supreme to my equal
Say not a word I know you're tired so am I
I could cry
You know you knew it would
Be hard to play such a bad card
Lower your guard to unseen harm 'cos you're scarred
I can see
And the people that need
You say the couldn't read you
You plant 'em a seed
They claim they loved all the weeds
So you flee
What I say
Somebody's got to pay for the piano
Somebody's got to make sure we honor everyone
I know if we can forfeit all our sorrow
It may as well be us
It may as well be us
It may as well be us
Share
So people my people
The cat in the steeple
And everyone here I know your fear like a friend
I contend
Commandos commandettes
It wasn't a sure bet
But nothing good was and
What should or could be does what it can
It's a quiet and sad choice you hear in your own voice
I know what I'd like and I can't say anymore
Je t' adore
So break it down
Somebody's got to pay for the piano
Somebody's got to make sure we honor everyone
I know if we can forfeit all our sorrow
It may as well be us
