Breath - Pere Ubu

Dog day afternoon by the sea.

I think about you.

What am I gonna do?

Sorrow’s hangin over me.

Let me walk with you cuz it’s breaking my heart.

The things that we had,

The good and the bad — now it’s parking lots.

Don’t let’s talk about tomorrow —

Baby, standin at the edge of sorrow.

Let’s watch the whole world goin slow.

Let’s watch the whole world goin.

I know my way round town.

Used to live around here.

I know the sites to see,

The things they mean to me,

And how we tore it down.

Let me walk with you cuz it’s breaking my heart.

The things that we had,

The good and the bad — now it’s parking lots.

Don’t let’s talk about tomorrow —

Baby, standin at the edge of sorrow.

Let’s watch the whole world just goin slow.

Let’s watch the whole world goin slow.

Unh-hunh.

It was a dream.

Nah, but it was a tin can.

Not a dream — man, it was a tin can.

Ha!

Had I not kicked that…

Had I not kicked that…

Had it clattered in the gutter when it bounced down the sidewalk…

Had I not…

Keep that.

Don’t let’s talk about tomorrow —

Baby, standin at the edge of sorrow.

Let’s watch the whole world goin slow.

Let’s watch the whole world goin so.

Let’s watch the whole world goin.
