Текст песни: And Then I Read A Book + перевод

You gave up my career; promotion was in sight

And just to keep the peace I keep my mouth shut

Filling hours with others takes up too much time

I’m always catching colds: I never seem to shake them off

You’re never coming home

I cook some food for you

It lies there getting cold

And then I clean my shoes

And then I clean my shoes

I’ve got so many shoes

And then, within the same breath, you turn around and say

«It's just that I’ve never been in the position

As to something sensible being drawn out of me»

I had this awful dream that all my teeth fell out

I couldn’t live this way so I slept for days on end

If my legs were made of wood you would have never talked to me

And so it goes to show that all you want’s above the knee

You’re never coming home

I cook some food for you

It lies there getting cold

And then I clean my shoes

And then I clean my shoes

I’ve got so many shoes

And then, within the same breath, you turn around and say

«It's just that I’ve never been in the position

As to something sensible being drawn out of me»

You’re never coming home

I cook some food for you

It lies there getting cold

And then I clean my shoes

And then I clean my shoes

I’ve got so many shoes

And then, within the same breath, you turn around and say

«It's just that I’ve never been in the position

As to something sensible being drawn out of me»
