Текст песни: White Picket Fence + перевод

Mother come quick the doctor is sick lying there on the street

Circus Performers they all tried to warn us of the blistering heat

And there aint no water so what is the bother with trying to drink

What’s the new plan when your medicine man has gone too dead to think

And I saw you looking out, I saw you looking at me (repeat)

And that white picket fence that you had as a kid

It aint white anymore and the wood has gone bad

The streets are all empty, the stores have been picked clean, and the lights

are all out

the doors are all closed, and the windows all broken, and the buildings torn

down

And the dogs own the night but they all lost their bite and they’re too tired

to growl

We tried throwing stones but you can’t stop the moans of that hovering crowd

I saw you crying out, I saw you crying at night (repeat)

And that white picket fence that you used to have

It aint white anymore and the paint has gone bad

Well the drugs have worn off and there’s blood in your cough and your starting

to turn

And the angels will rise as we blankly stare at their growing concern

And the preacher still preaches from outside the steeple saying when will they

learn

But the congregations gone they’re on the church lawn and they’re watching it

burn

I saw you screaming out, I saw you screaming out (repeat)

And that white picket fence that you had when you were young

It aint white anymore and the damage has been done

You’re too sick to scream and the last of your dreams they got taken last night

And they’re growing impatient now all of the nations are starting to fight

And the mothers are crying, the children are dying, and you’re losing your sight

Yeah and it won’t be long now, we’ll all be gone, walking into the light

I saw you reaching out, I saw you reaching for me (repeat)

And that white picket fence that you had as a kid

It aint shining anymore and it never ever did
