paroles de chanson 32nd Street - Ronnie Lane's Slim Chance

I′d rather have my life than be unborn
Yes, I'd rather have a bad time than no time at all
I′d rather take the storm than be becalmed
Yes, I'd rather have my life than be unborn

But if I was a monkey up a tree
And all you big old blackbirds come and take a peck at me
But I'd rather have that life than be unborn
Yes, I′d rather take that writing off the wall

And if I was a monkey up a tree
Or down in some old basement on 32nd Street
But I′d rather live a nightmare that's my own
Yes, I′d rather take that writing off the wall

Sometimes I think I must be going crazy
'Cause most people seem to value that that hasn′t any worth
Well, that's their business now you know I′m easy
As long as they don't count on me to do their dirty work

I'd rather be the rain than be a pond
Yes, I′d rather I had nothing than had something that I′d borne
I'd rather make my church the open road
Yes, I′d rather wipe that writing off the wall

And if I was a monkey up a tree
Or in some dirty basement down on 32nd Street
I'd rather take my life than be unborn
Yes, I′d disregard that writing on the wall

Sometimes I think I must be going crazy
Most people seem to value that that hasn't any worth
Well, that′s their business now you know I'm easy
As long as they don't count on me to do their dirty work

I′d rather have my life than be unborn
Yes, I′d rather have a bad time than no time at all
Yes, I'd rather take that storm than be becalmed
Yes, I′d rather have my life than be unborn

Give me just one wish and leave me be
Yeah, give me some old shack upon that rocky mountain scene
But I'd rather have my life than be unborn
Yes, I′d rather wipe that writing off the wall
