Rainbirds - Ha! Ha! Houdini's Laughing lyrics

rate me

I used to live close by the river

I used to let my heart go with the stream

I knew I held the key to any door

I held the key to everything and more

Once upon a time I took it easy

Once upon a time I took it rough

I used to earn my living with the things I loved

Now they pay me for what I love not

The river's running backwards

And my heart is quickly closing now

Ha! ha! houdini's laughing

Laughing last

Ha! ha! houdini's laughing.

Houdini's laughing last

I've been sliding down this track of tears

Swimming with this water chute

Drowning in discontent

But now the sun is shining with a different grin

It can be cold as ice

It can be hot as fire

Burning in my eyes

I used to live near by the border

I used to say good morning to the wall

Today they sell the truth at every corner

It seems that they can't stand the truth at all

Once upon a time I took it badly

Once upon a time I felt so fine

I wanted to hold on but I could hardly

Remember everythingall that was mine

The river `s running backwards

And my heart is quickly closing now

Ha! ha! ha! ha! houdini's laughing

Laughing last

Ha! ha! houdini's laughing.

Houdini's laughing last

I've been sliding down this track of tears

Swimming with this water chute

Drowning in discontent

But now the sun is shining with a different grin

It can be cold as ice

It can be hot as fire

Burning in my eyes
