lirik lagu playradioplay – 1989
father hit his head on the kitchen door
mother broke her ankle on the theatre floor
while i was waiting patiently in a warm, dark safe
with a smile on
father waited nervously by the hospital door
mother placed the table with her apr-n on and her hair tied up
father packed a suitcase with his clothes tucked in it and a face of disgust
while i remember vaguely
in their bedroom with the closet too small
i remember yelling from the hall
mmm surprise i’m the apple of your eye
ohh it is true this piece i wrote for you
i remember vividly on my fathers shoulders i felt so tall
taught me how to tie my shoes on the staircase at the end of the hall
well i was screaming manically at the bathroom ceiling with the water on
i remember sleeping with the light on
now it’s clear that i am no use right here
take it slow we’ve got a long long way to go
father held my homework up with a grimace and a hole punched in it
father stood there softly with a big warm grin and his baseball tickets
i put my breath in a suitcase
for the politicians of that place and time
mother broke her ankle in 1989
at the top of the town where you can be looking down
with the sp-ce and the air no one can find you there
just the plants and sky, oh i almost went awry
with the sights and the sounds, you can sleep without a sound
