Susan — текст песни (Aimee Mann)

Oh, susan, you were clued in

You knew just how this thing would go

A prognosis that was hopeless

From the very first domino

I guess I see it all in hindsight

I tried to keep perspective despite

The flash of the fuse, the smell of cordite





Now Im in that place again

And I know he cant come in to get me

And someday he will live to regret me

Susan, I can see it now





Oh, suzie--they get to me

They can really be wearying

But he threw me rope and buoy

Let me use his decoder ring

There must have been some kind of parade

We kissed for a while to see how it played

And pulled the pin on another grenade





Now Im in that place again

And I know he cant come in to get me

And someday he will live to regret me

Suzie, I can see it now





Oh, susan, the hope of fusion

Is that the halo will reappear

It may be pure illusion

But its beautiful while its here

I had some trouble with the goodbye

I checked my roman candle supply

And watched the vapor trail in the sky





But Im in that place again

And I know he cant come in to get me

And someday he will live to regret me

Susan, I can see it now
