All of a Sudden — текст песни (Xtc)

(andy partridge)



What can I say?

Why do we starve a thing thats near extinction?

From day to day,

These weeds of fear,

Are choking our conviction,

Lifes like a jig-saw,

You get the straight bits,

But theres something missing in the middle.



All of a sudden,

We find the cupboards bare.

All of a sudden,

We find heavens not there.

All of a sudden,

We find the suns gone cold.

All of a sudden

We find were more than old.

All of a sudden,

We find that weve lost love,

So please dont push or shove because,

Its too late,

Its too late,

In all your hurry youve accidentally locked the gate



What can we do?

Trying to stem the flow of sand is useless.

Its up to you start holding hands,

And watch the balance redress,

Lifes like a firework,

Youre only lit once,

And you must stand and radiate correctly.



All of a sudden,

We find the cupboards bare.

All of a sudden,

We find heavens not there.

All of a sudden,

We find the suns gone cold.

All of a sudden

We find were more than old.

All of a sudden,

We find that weve lost love,

So please dont push or shove because,

Its too late,

Its too late,

In all your hurry youve accidentally locked the gate



Loves not a product you can hoard or pack a suitcase with,

Its more a way you have to give.



All of a sudden,

We find the cupboards bare.

All of a sudden,

We find heavens not there.

All of a sudden,

We find the suns gone cold.

All of a sudden

We find were more than old.

All of a sudden,

We find that weve lost love,

So please dont push or shove because,

Its too late,

Its too late,

In all your hurry youve accidentally locked the gate your hurry youve accidentally locked the gate.
