there was a town around
there lived a queen and a girl
a girl used to count the stars in the night
but queen – she counted pearls
and teased the girl:
‘you can never win, you can never lose
if you don’t take a chance and don’t feed the muse, oh, darling
you won’t be a queen and me your ring
as elvis is j.brown who looks like pink
so, that’s how it goes, that’s how it goes
we can’t hide’
once upon a time there was a king and clown
they used to be lovers, come on, i’m joking, just lived in one town
a king used to visit some bars,
but the clown - whole night long he counted stars
and teased the king:
‘you can never win, you can never lose
if you don’t take a chance and don’t feed the muse, oh, darling
you won’t be a clown and me your king
as elvis is j.brown who looks like pink’
that’s how it goes, that’s how it goes
we can’t hide
life has no corners, it’s more like a bridge
we can’t hide
‘cos all the fishes are cold in the fridge
scissors, stone&paper
and another story’s told
be careful not to vapour the ones, the ones you love before you’re old
‘and it’s down on me, and it’s down on you
and the stars above and the ocean’s blue, oh darling’
you can be whatever you want to be
while the fairytales are told by me
and that’s how it goes, that’s how it goes
we can’t hide
life has no corners, it’s more like a bridge
we can’t hide
‘cos all the fishes are cold in the fridge
the thunderstorm grows fast
and no one fairytale is to happily last
why the future is always in front of the past
we can’t hide
life has no corners, it’s more like a bridge
we can’t hide
‘cos all the fishes are cold in the fridge
we can’t hide
we can’t hide
