Wishing The Days Away — текст песни (Billy Bragg)

On monday I wished it was tuesday night

So I could wish for the weekend to come

On tuesday I wished that the night would pass

So I could call you on the phone

Now a man can spend a lot of time

Wondering what was on jack rubys mind

And time is all I have without you here



On wednesday when you hung up

It was as much as I could do

To stop from wishing thursday

Would pass so quickly too

Theyre out there making history

In the lenin shipyards today

And here I am in the hammersmith hotel

Wishing the days away



Theres always room for one more soul

Down in the human zoo

I dont want you to come here though

I want to come home to you

Somebodys knocking at the door

Its later than I think

And its time to put on these stinking clothes

And get out there and stink



On friday I wished there was something more

To be seen in the letters you send

On saturday I wished it was sunday

Oh will this torment ever end

Sometimes I get a notion to put a torch

To the tools of my trade

Here I am in the hammersmith hotel

Wishing the days away
