เพลง Carol

Sometimes it seems unimaginable

That you were ever any other way

With your white rose face and your orphan clothes

Embroidered jeans and silver chains

You're a well known face in all the hang out places

Where the lost souls congregate

You sit all night but you talk too fast

I don't know what you're trying to say

Oh carol I think it's time for running for cover uh hum

Believe me you're everyone's and nobody's lover uh hum

You've got a one way ticket for all your yesterdays

I know your daddy said he'd talk to you

But he never really found the time

And your TV mother with her cocktail eyes

Could never really reach your mind

So you fixed your star to a passing dream

And took a cocaine holiday

Now the years flow around you in a muddy stream

You need another place to stay

Oh carol I think it's time for running for cover uh hum

Believe me you're everyone's and nobody's lover uh hum

You've got a one way ticket for all your yesterdays

Reach down silvery ship from the stars

I know you're there

I know you'll understand me

You can take me anywhere

I know you must be there

While sometimes it seems impossible

That the game could get that rough

But the stage is set the exit's barred

And the make up won't come off

So you make your bow to the balcony

You light another cigarette

And the lights grow dim as the music starts

And it's easy to forget

Oh carol I think it's time for running for cover uh hum

Believe me you're everyone's and nobody's lover uh hum

You've got a one way ticket to all your yesterdays

Reach down silvery ship from the stars

I know you're there

I know you'll understand me

You can take me anywhere

I know you must be there
