Pushing through the market square so many mothers sighing
News had just come over we had five years left to cry in
News guy wept and told us earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet then I knew he was not lying
I heard telephones opera house favorite melodies
I saw boys toys electric irons and TVs
My brain hurt like a warehouse it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
And all the fat skinny people and all the tall short people
And all the nobody people and all the somebody people
Never thought Id need so many people
A girl my age went off her head hit some tiny children
If the black hadnt a-pulled her off I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
And the queer threw up at the sight of that
I think I saw you in an ice cream parlor
Drinking milk shakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine
Dont think you knew you were in this song
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
And I thought of ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face your race the way that you talk
I kiss you youre beautiful I want you to walk
Weve got five years stuck on my eyes
Five years what a surprise
Weve got five years my brain hurts a lot
Five years thats all weve got
Weve got five years what a surprise
Five years stuck on my eyes
Weve got five years my brain hurts a lot
Five years thats all weve got
Weve got five years stuck on my eyes
Five years what a surprise
Weve got five years my brain hurts a lot
Five years thats all weve got
Weve got five years what a surprise
Weve got five years stuck on my eyes
Weve got five years my brain hurts a lot
Five years thats all weve got
Five years
