Текст песни: 5 Miles Outside Monroe + перевод

Five miles outside of Monroe

They say a man there just been killed

Say you don’t wanna talk about it

But twenty dollars says you will

Thought we made some progress

Stayed up 'til the dawn

I thought we made some progress

Oh, then again, I could be wrong

Well, five miles outside of Monroe

You’re drumming your fingers on the dashboard

Otis Redding’s on the radio

He’s always so lonely at the dock of the bay

I thought we made some progress

With the advent of a kiss

Yeah, I thought we made some progress

Oh, then again, it was just a wish

On and on, brick by brick

Come and build my house

While I try to get real good

At putting words in people’s mouths

One day when the bottom drops out

Oh, we’ll lay this thing to rest

The truth sleeping like dynamite

Inside this paper flesh

Phone calls have been placed

Letters have been sent

We’ve been trying to determine the exact nature of

Your critical involvement

Five miles outside of Monroe

There’s static on the dispatch

«Freedom"--there's a holy word

But there’s a simple catch

On and on, brick by brick

Come and build my house

While I try to get real good

At putting words in people’s mouths

One day when the bottom drops out

Oh, we’ll lay this thing to rest

The truth sleeping like dynamite

Inside this paper flesh
