Tom Waits - Talking At The Same Time Lyrics
Get a job, save your money, listen to JaneEverybody knows umbrellas cost more in the rainAnd all the news is badIs there any other kind?And everybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeWell, everybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeWell, itÂ’s hard times for some, for others itÂ’s sweetSomeone makes money when thereÂ’s blood in the streetDonÂ’t take any lipStay in lineEverybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeWell, the dog is in the kitchen and the war drags onThe trees wait by the freewayAll the money is all goneWell, she told me she would leave meI ignored all the signsAnd now everybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeEverybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeWell, ainÂ’t no one coming to pull you from the mudYou gotta build your nest high enough to ride out the floodI know youÂ’re leaving and thereÂ’s no more next timeEverybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeA tiny boy sat and he played in the sandHe made a sword from a stick and a gun from his handWell, we bailed out all the millionairesTheyÂ’ve got the fruitWeÂ’ve got the rindAnd everybodyÂ’s talking at the same timeAnd everybodyÂ’s talking at the same time
