Letra de Poem to a Horse (Live in Rotterdam, Netherlands - April 2003)
You're too far to bring you close And too high to see below Just hanging on your daily dose You never needed anyone But the rolling papers for your grass How can you give what you don't have?You keep on aiming for the top And quit before you sweat a drop I feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot I bet you'll find someone like you 'Cause there's a foot for every shoe And I wish you luck, but I've other things to doI'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain But you're so in love with yourself If I say, my heart is sore Sounds like a cheap metaphor I won't repeat it no moreI'd rather eat my soup with a fork Or drive a cab in New York 'Cause to talk to you is harder work What's the point of wasting all my words? If it's just the same or even worse Than reading poems to a horseYou keep on aiming for the top And quit before you sweat a drop I feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot I bet you'll find someone like you 'Cause there's a foot for every shoe And I wish you luck, but I've other things to doI'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain But you're so in love with yourself If I say, my heart is sore Sounds like a cheap metaphor So I won't repeat it no moreI'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain But you're so in love, so in love with yourself If I say, my heart is sore Sounds like a cheap metaphor So I won't repeat it no moreI'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain But you're so in love, so in love with yourself If I say, my heart is sore Sounds like a cheap metaphor So I won't repeat it no moreLet me ask you a question, guys Are you having a good time?
