Текст (слова) песни: Fatima Mansions, The - You`re a Rose
This is Mister Blank calling, gorgeous from the slum which time ignores where folks use razor blades for toothpaste and every breath is a holy war Were you sleeping? Do you hate me? I`ve been dozing in the midnight sun and I`ve solved all of my problems Making the many into one
The Good Times are all over I don`t care, it seems I missed them but I miss your smile, your laugh, your snore, your fond contempt, your faithful rage
You`re a rose You`re a rose in a crown of thorns
You don`t mind the queues, the burning trains The squalid, mute despair You don`t mind deceiving lovers You ignore the stinking air Well, now accept you`re just a person Not the touchstone, not the face of the ages past, their grandeur and the death-wish of the Master Race
The dawn sky is getting bleaker Our demise could not be neater and your face hangs down before me now like a rootless flame; in awe I stare
You`re a rose on fire You`re a rose in a crown of thorns Well, I think you`d better hang up on the jerk It`s been too long, too long, too long From now on there`s only gonna be one way One way traffic now The door is open, the door is open wide cos I said so...
