Twenty Years

Twenty Years
There are twenty years to go
and the twenty ways to know
who will wear the hat.
There are twenty years to go,
the best of all i hope.
Enjoy the ride, the medicine show.
And thems the breaks for we
designer fakes.

We need to concentrate
on more than meets the eye.
There are twenty years to go,
the punch drunk and the blow.
The worst of stars, the mercy part,
the phone.
And thems the breaks for we
designer fakes.
We need to concentrate on more
then meets the eye.
Thems the breaks for we
designer fakes.
But it´s you a take ´cause you´re
the truth not I
There are twenty years to go.
A golden age I know.
But all will pass.
Willend too fast, you know.
There are twenty years to go.
And many friends I hope.
Thouhg some may hold the rose
some hold the rope.
And that´s the end and that´s
the stars of it.
That´s the whole and that´s
the part of it. That´s the high
and that´s the heart of it. That´s the
long and that´s the short of it.
That´s the best and that´s test in it.
That´s the doubt, the doubt,
the trust in it. that´s the sight
and that´s the sound of it.
That´s the gift and that´s the trick
in it. You´re the truth not I.

Con un tono melancólico pero también esperanzador, la letra nos invita a disfrutar el viaje de la vida como si fuera un espectáculo, donde a veces somos víctimas de engaños y falsedades....
