phil manzanera - cuban crisis كلمات الأغنية

maccormack-manzanera

she said, i’ve got to get away
be smart stay cool, hey
don’t be that way
i got to get away
you know i love you
but i really cannot stay
i’ve booked a ticket on a plane
and when she said it
she was on the phone
call long distance
then she smiled and said
i’m coming home
she packed her bag
and blew a kiss, it missed
and gave the dog a pat
and then she said
she had to run…

if you knew where to look
she could bear contemplation
her -ssets ain’t suffered
because of inflation
sure, s-x meant a lot
i gave her my best shot
but if i wasn’t so hot
well, there must have been some books that i could read

how could i hope to have kept her
just a cheap lousy dime-a-day tune-smith
now my words don’t impress her
i keep on ending lines like this with spend-thrift
disposable tunes
that’s when ‘moon’ rhymes with ‘june’
seems to ruffle her conscience
and give her the bee
how else could i pay
for those long months away
with those so special people
who live in … (?)
she said, will you promise to be strong
i grabbed her hand and asked her
“honey, there must be something wrong”
and she replied, “well how can i live
in such a light-weight song?”
and then she said she had to run…

now i think she’s in cuba
with a house on a bay
with a great view
but they’ll have to remove her
cuz she keeps on telling fidel what to do
i can just hear him say
as she gets her own way
and the tourists flock in
and the mob cashes in
“i’ve tried not to be
so pet-t bourgeoisie
but i can’t help but feel
that the revolution’s
gone right round the bend”

i promise to be strong
there must be something wrong
booked a ticket on a plane
i’ll be on my way
run…
