Shandy — текст песни (Kris Kristofferson)

Shandy was somebodys daughter

Driving to something insane

They busted her crossing the border

Quick as a sniff of cocaine

All she could pay was attention

So all they could take was her time

Proving an ounce of possession

Aint worth a piece of your mind.



Chorus:

cause nightmares are somebodys daydreams

Daydreams are somebodys lies.

Lies aint no harder than telling the truth.

Truth is the perfect disguise



Locked in the goldhandle bathroom

Martin was changing his mind

Shedding his humble pretensions

One careful toke at a time

And wiping the mask off the man in the mirror

Who really was billy the kid

Smiling at somebody dying

For something that he never did



Chorus:

cause nightmares are somebodys daydreams

Daydreams are somebodys lies.

Lies aint no harder than telling the truth.

Truth is the perfect disguise



As soon as he sat down beside her

Shining like saturday night

Shandy was his for the saving

Sweet as she looked in the light

And maybe they moved from the bar to the bedroom

Maybe just stood there instead

Martin woke up wet and screaming

Dreaming of blood on the bed.



Chorus:

cause nightmares are somebodys daydreams

Daydreams are somebodys lies.

Lies aint no harder than telling the truth.

Truth is the perfect disguise
