Текст, перевод и аккорды “The Short Answer”
Between marx and marzipan in the dictionary there was mary Between the deep blue sea and the devil that was me If ever anyone could help me with my obsession with The young suzannah york It was mary In my pink pyjamas she asked me for something I gave her the short answer She read our stars out loud And I knew then that we should have gone sailing But we stayed home instead Fighting on the waterbed Like the honeymoon couple on drugs Me and mary What happened in the past Remained a mystery of natural history She should have been the last But she was just the latest If she wanted to be a farmers wife I would endure that muddy life I would dig for victory And the sound of happy couples Coupling happily in the dark While you and I sat down to tea I remember you said to me That no amount of poetry Would mend this broken heart But you can put the hoover round If you want to make a start All my friends from school Introduce me to their spouses While Im left standing here With my hands down the front of my trousers I just dont know whats to be done I wonder sometimes how did dad meet mum And how did they conceive of me Tell my mary The boys who came to the shop Always made her laugh much more than I did When I told her this must stop She didnt bat an eyelid She said you know honey its such a shame Youll never be any good at this game You bruise too easily So said mary Her two brothers took me out Of circulation for the duration So we went our separate ways but does she still love me She still has my door key Like a bully boy in a benetton shop Youre never happy with what youve got Till what youve got is gone Sorry mary
