The phone rings, it`s early, it`s seven o`clock. He says sorry I woke you, but I just had to talk You know last night, remember when I tried to choke you? I didn`t mean it, I was drunk, it was only a joke. You should know that by now, when the chequered flag comes down, no one no one no one has won the race.
The next night he`s over and over and under and after he`s finished she lies there and wonders just why does she need him and why does she stay here and then in the darkness she`ll quietly say Dear, you`ve never really known that when the white flag is flown, no one no one no one has won the war.
They`re complicated people leading complicated lives, and he complicates their problems by telling complicated lies He tells her he`s sorry, she tells him it`s over, he tells her he`s sorry, she says over and over You`ve never really known that when the white flag is flown, no one no one no one has won the war.
There goes a forest and there goes a bluebird There goes a partridge and there goes a Go Train There goes an angel and there goes a steeple There goes a cop car and there goes an eagle There goes a raven and there go the ribbons There goes a raven and there go the ribbons There goes a raven and there go
The ribbons the ribbons the ribbons The ribbons of the flag.
