Glen Hansard - Race to the Bottom текст песни

Текст песни Race to the Bottom - Glen Hansard



Sliding along by the Seine, it's May Day
This song's in my head once again
It's a long way down to the bottom we've been racing
Coughing my lungs up on Rue des Irlandais
Becoming a risk to myself
It's a long way down to the bottom and we're racing
The radio silence and the anarchists
Are gathering names, dates and lists for burning
It's a long way down to the bottom
That we've been racing
Oh, how you move me, but truly
Oh, how you set my heart aglow
I'm shadowing in with the crowds unnoticed
Somebody painted an X on my back
It's a long way down to the bottom
And we're racing
Piss on the streets after dark in Paris
Even on dear Joan of Arc, she knows
It's a long way down to the bottom
And we've been racing
Even the gods as they gaze down on us
Know that there's no one to be saved among us
They keep turning away
Turning away
We're singing along with the righteous people
The bullets will rain down from the mosques and steeples
They keep turning away
Turning away
A taste for the wine and a woman's forgiveness
Her man's in decline; oh, it's a nasty business
It's a long way down to the bottom that we've been racing
Our blood is no thicker than this water, my brother
You'll find out soon, one way or the other
It's a long way down to the bottom
That we've been racing
Even the clouds that send the rains down on us
See a horizon that goes way beyond us
They keep drifting away, drifting away
While down in the dark in the tick tock alleys
Time's running out and there's still bills to tally
We keep chipping away, chipping away
Sliding along with the bouquinistes
Baldwin and Brecht and the distance between us
It's a long way down to the bottom
That we've been racing
I'm rising up strong like a snake that's charmed
A handsome Parisienne on my arm
It's a long way down to the bottom
That we've been racing
