lirik lagu david keenan - big boys must cry (live at the olympia theatre)
[intro: spoken]
olympia!
big boys must cry
[verse 1]
a madness began to stir in me
it came from the hearth of my gut
my neolithic mind became engulfed by half truths, oh i felt i was inflamed
no i could not even breathe
anxiety the parasite it robbed me
left me marooned on an island
on a motorway roundabout, i slept with the cold
a soggy copy of lolita by my head
plastic bags and indifference for a bed
gaelic legends came carrying a canvas
inspiration gave birth to a sadness
who in petrolled rags and porcelain shawls
consumed the carnage on my western front
[pre~chorus]
rhyming a couple of [?]
to the sound of the smashing of the laughter
look out for the angry angel
declared the slow down and has no remarks
[chorus]
big boys must cry
all big boys must cry
all big boys must cry
tell your father, tell your brother, tell your grandad
[post~chorus]
the pendulums begun to swing again
they’re queuing up, tell your friends, tell your friends
roll up, roll up, get a good look now
[verse 2]
i became used to the idea of being well again
speaking the language of my own soul
with cupped hands i drank from the pool of reflection
if happiness is growth, these are f~cking growing pains
in the silent shade of thought i spoke your name again
i lit a fire with your old thesaurus
i got two buses to learn a verse and a chorus
from a sick kid in his mother’s kitchen
who said the answers exist in plain sight
earn your death by living an outrageous life
[pre~chorus]
rhyming a couple of [?]
to the sound of the smashing of the laughter
look out for the angry angel
declared the slow down and has no remarks
[chorus]
big boys must cry
oh big boys must cry
oh big boys must cry
oh big boys must cry
tell your father, tell your brother, tell your grandad
[post~chorus]
the pendulums begun to swing again
they’re queuing up, tell your friends, tell your friends
tell your friends, tell your friends
roll up, roll up, get a good look now
[crowd singing]
big boys must cry
big boys must cry
big boys must cry
big boys must cry
sing it!
[chorus]
big boys must cry
oh big boys must cry
oh big boys must cry
oh big boys must cry
