Текст песни Be My Enemy - 2004 Remastered Version - The Waterboys

Well, the dawn is howling and the mainframe shakes
Feel like I've been sleeping in a cellar full of snakes
My wings have been clipped, my shoes have been stuck with glue
Well, if you'll be my enemy, I'll be your enemy too

Now I've got goons on my landing, thieves on my trail
Nazis on my telephone willing me to fail
They were all sent by someone, obviously you
Well, if you'll be my enemy, I'll be your enemy too

Now I've a bucketful of Babylon, I got a handful of lead
I'm gonna put them in a gun, man, point it at your head
Because you stole all my friends and you gave me the buffalo blues
Well, if you'll be my enemy, I'll be my enemy too

Now from the slime on your tongue to the nails on your toes
From the scales on your skin to the stains on your clothes
You're gonna make me have to do something that do not want to do
But if you'll be my enemy, I'll be your enemy too

My hands are tied, nailed to the floor
Feel like I'm knocking on the unknown door
Gun at my back, blade at my throat
Keep finding hate mail in the pockets of my coat

Well, I've been trying to grow, I been cooling my heels
I've have been working in the treadmill, I've been working in the fields
And I can't get to sleep and I can't catch my breath
I can't stop talking and I look like death

But I will put right this disgrace, I will rearrange you
'Cause if you'll be my enemy, I'll be your enemy too
If you'll be my enemy, I'll be your enemy too
Be my enemy

Be my enemy, be my enemy
Be my enemy, be my enemy
