Fool's Garden - Emily Lyrics
(hinkel / freudenthaler)Emily's going out tonightWith a candle in her pocket andA lighter in her right handDoes anybody knowWhy she's gonna goShe's nearly out of sightEmily's out tonightSo familiarHow ladylike the old girl comes alongShe's ninety something,Dressed up and wide awakeA little slow but going strongShe's paid off the overdraftFor the tv she has bought in 84She's been paying all her lifetimeBut now she's gonna pay no moreDeep religiousShe went to mess on every sunday morningShe's believingIn god but she don't likeThe priest he's new in town ¨c and very boringShe's listened to his sermon wellThough she's heard the same one hundred times beforeShe's heard them all her lifetimeBut now she's gonna listen anymoreEmily's going out tonightWith a candle in her pocket andA lighter in her right handDoes anybody knowWhy she's gonna go awayShe's gonna make it todayShe's very friendlyAnd open minded always understandingBad behaviourShe doesn't like at allShe's very modest, she's never been demandingShe's always followed every ruleThough she didn't even know what they've been forShe has followed all her lifetimeBut now she's gonna follow anymoreEmily's going out tonight...
