George — текст песни (Jude)

George died in the fifth grade

No one ever knew why

He was out selling lemonade

On the fourth of july and he died



Sister claire said that he was

An angel on earth

She stood there and she told us

She had clearly rehearsed every verse



Of the lies that tie you down



Ive forgotten my first love

I havent seen her since when

Theres a bum on the corner

He thinks that Im his best friend, we pretend

He says the rapture is anyday

Thats when gods coming around

Although perhaps he should stay away

Theyll run him right out of town, like a clown



Chorus:

With the lies that tie you down



There are times when a man feels

That its him against the world

There are times when a man steals

From the love of his girl

There are days when a beast dies

Long before the gun

And there are days when a crow flies

Straight into the sun, to be done
