A & B Song Lyrics
A say's he's glad to be here
B's chasing storms in the lightning state
Where everyday above ground is a good day
And life is great
A's got cocaine body
B's got a benylin brain
A knows he's gonna be some body
B don't believe in fame
And all
Our time
Slips away
And all
Our time
Slips away
A's got a girl for each season
B's got a mail order bride
A knows he's headed for salvation
B's afraid to die
If hell is in the detail
Babe I'm a microscope
I know i'll live to see you swinging
Given enough rope
And all
Our time
Slips away
And all
Our time
Slips away
A's growing tired of conversation
He's ready for his final scene
B's whistling hotel california
And still living out the dream
Here we are together
Let's roll the dice just one more time
Odd number says we walk away now
Even says we die...don't wanna die
And all
Our time
Slips away
And all
Our time
Slips away
B's chasing storms in the lightning state
Where everyday above ground is a good day
And life is great
A's got cocaine body
B's got a benylin brain
A knows he's gonna be some body
B don't believe in fame
Our time
Slips away
Our time
Slips away
B's got a mail order bride
A knows he's headed for salvation
B's afraid to die
If hell is in the detail
Babe I'm a microscope
I know i'll live to see you swinging
Given enough rope
Our time
Slips away
Our time
Slips away
He's ready for his final scene
B's whistling hotel california
And still living out the dream
Here we are together
Let's roll the dice just one more time
Odd number says we walk away now
Even says we die...don't wanna die
Our time
Slips away
Our time
Slips away
My favorite Tom McRae song...I love how he compares them...and his voice is to die for. It's kind of like Jeff Buckley, but it's different.
Really great song. Very deep and weird and mystical. About two total opposites in every way.
Could it be about just one person? I feel that it is. We are all conflicted inside.
i think comparing him to jeff buckley is outrageous. jeff is in a league of his own. this song is nice. actually LOVE it.
The ends of the verses remind me of the songs my dad plays. It's interesting how B's starts out life unhappy, but ends up enjoying it more than A did. Perhaps a life lesson for some people out there?
