Paroles

0:27Blood from a stone, water from wine
0:32Born under an ill-placed sign
0:37A stroke of bad luck, wrong place, wrong time
0:43This flyer is out of the line
0:48The story is a sad one, told many times
0:54The story of my life in trying times
1:00Just add water, stir in lime
1:06How the west was won and where it got us
1:23Canary got trapped in the uranium mine
1:29I struck bad luck, now the bird has died
1:34A marker to mark where my tears run dry
1:40At the crossing of blessed and alkaline
1:46The story is a sad one, told many times
1:52The story of my life in trying times
1:58Just add water, stir in lime
2:04How the west was won and where it got us
2:32I didn't wear glasses 'cause I thought it might rain
2:39Now I can't see anything
2:44I made a mistake, chalked it up to design
2:49I cracked through time, space, godless and dry
2:55I point my nose to the northern star
3:01And watch the decline from a hazy distance
3:07The story is a sad one, told many times
3:12The story of my life in trying times
3:18Just add water, stir in lime
3:24How the west was won and where it got us
Blood from a stone, water from wine
Born under an ill-placed sign
A stroke of bad luck, wrong place, wrong time
This flyer is out of the line
The story is a sad one, told many times
The story of my life in trying times
Just add water, stir in lime
How the west was won and where it got us
Canary got trapped in the uranium mine
I struck bad luck, now the bird has died
A marker to mark where my tears run dry
At the crossing of blessed and alkaline
The story is a sad one, told many times
The story of my life in trying times
Just add water, stir in lime
How the west was won and where it got us
I didn't wear glasses 'cause I thought it might rain
Now I can't see anything
I made a mistake, chalked it up to design
I cracked through time, space, godless and dry
I point my nose to the northern star
And watch the decline from a hazy distance
The story is a sad one, told many times
The story of my life in trying times
Just add water, stir in lime
How the west was won and where it got us
