Tom Waits - Talking At The Same Time lyrics
rate meGet a job, save your money, listen to JaneEverybody knows umbrellas cost more in the rainAnd all the news is badIs there any other kind?And everybodys talking at the same timeWell, everybodys talking at the same timeWell, its hard times for some, for others its sweetSomeone makes money when theres blood in the streetDont take any lipStay in lineEverybodys talking at the same timeWell, the dog is in the kitchen and the war drags onThe trees wait by the freewayAll the money is all goneWell, she told me she would leave meI ignored all the signsAnd now everybodys talking at the same timeEverybodys talking at the same timeWell, aint no one coming to pull you from the mudYou gotta build your nest high enough to ride out the floodI know youre leaving and theres no more next timeEverybodys talking at the same timeA tiny boy sat and he played in the sandHe made a sword from a stick and a gun from his handWell, we bailed out all the millionairesTheyve got the fruitWeve got the rindAnd everybodys talking at the same timeAnd everybodys talking at the same time
