Hot Rock — текст песни (Sleater Kinney)

Im onto you

Before the night is through

Im going to steal this diamong

Hot rock to you



How am I to know what you want me to feel?

Counterfeit or real?

Im not the one you wanted

Not the thing you keep



Its a caper theme, theres a getaway car

A diamond to steal, a plan that might go wrong

If this is a set up, please let me know

I cant risk my life for a guilded stone

(I thought all along this was everything

Try not to look to hard to find that its not real

I knew all along you werent everything

Then in the darkest hour I watched you disappear)



Its a crafty scene, full of power and greed

You tell me not to steal, yet you still want a thief

You write out the plans, I carry out the act

But then I lose it all if I cant bring it back

(how was I to know this rock was so fragile

It cracked in my hands while I was holding on

An uncut stone is flawed and beautiful

Dont try to size me down to fit your tiny hands)



Its not real

You dont need to tell me

That its not real



Im onto you

Before the night is through

Im going to steal my heart back

And find a love thats true

Hot rock to you
