text: Pushing through the market square
  So many mothers sighing
  News had just come over
  We had five years left to cry in
  News guy wept and told us
  Earth was really dying
  Cried so much his face was wet
  Then I knew he wasnt lying
  I heard telephones, opera house
  Favourite melodies
  I saw boys, toys, electric irons
  And TVs
  My brain hurt like a warehouse
  It had no room to spare
  I had to cram so many things
  To store everything in there
  All the fat, skinny peoplе
  And all the tall, short people
  And all thе nobody people
  And all the somebody people
  I never thought Id need so many people
  A girl my age went off her head
  Hit some tiny children
  And if the black guy hadnt have pulled her off
  I sware she would have killed them
  A soldier with a broken arm
  Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
  A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
  While the Queen threw up at the sight of that
  I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour
  Drinking milk-shakes cold and long
  Smiling-and-waving-and looking so fine
  I dont think you knew you were in this song
  And it was cold and it rained
  So I felt like an actor
  And I thought of Ma
  And I wanted to get back there
  Your face, your race
  The way that you talk
  I kiss you, youre beautiful
  I want you to walk

  Thats all weve got
  Weve got five years
  Stuck on my eye
  Five years
  What a surprise
  Weve got five years
  My brain hurts a lot
  Five years
  Thats all weve got
  Weve got five years
  What a surprise
  Five years
  Stuck on my eyes
  Five years
  My brain hurts a lot
  Five years
  Thats all weve got
  Weve got five years
  Stuck on my eyes
  Five years
  What a surprise!
