Текст песни R.E.M. - The Worst Joke Ever

Текст:

You see there's this cat burglar who can't see in the dark He lays his bets on 8 more lives, walks into a bar Slips on the 8 ball, falls on his knife Says, "I don't know what I've done, but it doesn't feel right! Some things don't hold up over the course of a lifetime When's the first time you heard that one, 1954? Get to the punch line. fall to the floor [Chorus] Give me a minute and I'll tell you the setup for The worst joke ever, I never I'll tell you my version of the greatest life story Don't bore me [Verse 2] Now I am floating I feel released The moorings have been dropped The weights unleashed Everything is crystalline, simple and free The crime of good men who can't wrestle with change Or are too afraid to face this life's misjudged unknowns You're not hurting anybody else's chances But you're disfiguring your own [Chorus] [Outro] You see there's this feeling that I've heard this one before
