The Emperor`s New Clothes — текст песни (oconnor sinead)

it seems like years since you held the baby
while I wrecked the bedroom
you said it was dangerous after sunday
and I knew you loved me
he thinks I just became famous
and that`s what messed me up
but he`s wrong
how could I possibly know what I want
when I was only twenty-one?
and there`s millions of people
to offer advice and say how I should be
but they`re twisted
and they will never be any influence on me
but you will always be
you will always be

if I treated you mean
I really didn`t mean to
but you know how it is
and how a pregnancy can change you

I see plenty of clothes that I like
but I won`t go anywhere nice for a while
all I want to do is just sit here
and write it all down and rest for a while
I can`t bear to be in another city
one where you are not
I would return to nothing without you
if I`m your girlfriend of not

maybe I was mean
but I really don`t think so
you asked if I`m scared
and I said so

everyone can see what`s going on
they laugh `cos they know they`re untouchable
not because what I said was wrong
whatever it may bring
I will have my own policies
I will sleep with a clear conscience
I will sleep in peace

maybe it sounds mean
but I really don`t think so
you asked for the truth and I told you
through they`re own words
they will be exposed
they`ve got a severe case of
the emperor`s new clothes.
