Suzanne Vega
Rusted Pipe
[Lyrics of „Rusted Pipe“]

[Verse 1]
Now the time has come to speak
I was not able
And water through a rusted pipe
Could make the sense that I do

[Verse 2]
Gurgle, mutter
Hiss, stutter
Moan the words like water
Rush and foam and choke

[Verse 3]
Having waited
This long of a winter
I fear I only
Croak and sigh

[Chorus]
Somewhere deep within
Hear the creak
That lets the tale begin

[Verse 4]
Now the time has come to move
I was not able
Water through a rusted pipe
Could make the moves that I do
[Verse 5]
Stagger, stumble
Trip, fumble
I fear I only
Slip and slide

[Chorus]
Somewhere deep within
Hear the creak
That lets the tale begin

Somewhere deep within
Hear the creak
That lets the tale begin
