Roger Waters
One of My Turns
[Sample]
"Can you tell me what you know?"
"Can you tell me what you know?"
"The story is dry. All we've got are pieces. We can't seem to figure out what the puzzle was supposed to look like."
"We forget the myths the media's created about the White House. The truth is, these are not very bright guys and things got out of hand. Follow the money. Just follow the money."
[Verse 1]
Day after day, the love turns gray
Like the skin of a dying man
And night after night we pretend it's all right
But I have grown older
And you have grown colder
And nothing is very much fun anymore
And I feel one of my turns coming on
I feel cold as a razor blade
Tight as a tourniquet
Dry as a funeral drum
[Verse 2]
Run to the bedroom
In the suitcase on the left
You'll find my favorite ax
Don't look so frightened
This is just a passing phase
One of my bad days
Would you like to watch TV?
Or get between the sheets?
Or contemplate the silent freeway?
Would you like something to eat?
Would you like to learn to fly?
Would you like to see me try?
[Outro]
Would you like to call the cops?
Do you think it's time I stopped?
Why are you running away?
