- The Streets Never Went To Church 歌詞
- The Streets
- Two great European narcotics,
Alcohol and Christianity,
I know which one I prefer
[Chorus:]
We never went to church,
Just get on with work and sometimes thingsll hurt,
But its hit me since you left us,
And its so hard not to search.
If you were still about,
Id ask you what Im supposed to do now,
I just get grubbin scared,
Every now,
Hope I made you proud.
On your birthday when mom passed the forks and spoons,
I put my head on the table I was so distraught with you,
You tidied your things into the bin,
The more poorly you grew,
So theres nothing of yours to hold or to talk to.
Put your hand up and interrupt the conversation with a, but ..
People say I interrupt people with the same look.
Sometimes I think so hard I cant remember how your face looked,
Started reading about dreams in your favorite book.
Panic and pace when I cant see the right thing to do.
Youd be scratching your head through the best advice you knew.
And I feel sad I cant hear you reciting it through,
I miss you dad but Ive got nothing to remind me of you
[Chorus]
I needed a break when your book about dreams was taken,
I needed to pray or see a priest that day,
I needed to leave this trade and just heave it away.
But I cleaned up my place like you so I could see things straight.
I never cared about God when life was sailin in the calm,
So I said Id get my head down and Id deal with the ache in my heart,
And for that if God exists Id reckon hed pay me regard,
Mom says me and you are the same from the start.
I guess than you did leave me something to remind me of you,
Every time I interrupt someone like you used to,
When I do something like you youll be on my mind or through,
Cause I forgot you left me behind to remind me of you.
[Chorus: Repeat 2X]
But you you still tell me how you didnt know what to do even now,
And then Im not so scared somehow,
Cause I know that youd be proud.
I got a good one for you dad,
Im gonna see a priest, a Rabbi and a Protestant clergyman,
You always said I should hedge my bets.
