Apartment  in New  York, London  and Paris,
 where  will we rest,  we’re all living  on top of it
It’s  all that we  have the USA  is our daily bread,
and  no one is willing  to share  it
Why  can’t we see  our fortunancy
living  as legends  have lived
Bane  and dismannered,  we coax  all the time
knowing  that nothing  is left when  we die
 Come aloooong  fool
 A  direct hit  of the senses  you are disconnected
 It’s not that it’s bad
 it’s not  that it’s death
It’s  just on  the tip  of your tongue,  and you're  so silent
Wanting  to live  and laugh  all the time,
sitting  alone  with you tea  and your crime
Children  with kids,  and people  with parents,
any  which way  there’s no past  and no presence
When  the day comes  and all  of them bums
will  reveal  enchanting  persons
 Come aloooong  fool
 A  direct hit  of the senses  you are disconnected
 It’s not that it’s bad…
 it’s not  that it’s death
It’s  just on  the tip  of your tongue,  and you're  so silent
When  it's a rut  and baby's  no luck,
half  of it's misunderstanding  love
 The war  we have won  we're winning  again,
within  ourselves  and within  our friends
 Come aloooong  fool
 A  direct hit  of the senses  you are disconnected
 It’s not that it’s bad…
 it’s not  that it’s death
It’s  just on  the tip  of your tongue,  and you're  so silent
