John Mellencamp - Case 795 (The Family)

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
Tony Jones stabbed Alice Jones

On their first anniversary down in Dallas, Texas

In a small apartment with nobody present

He pulled out a knife and he stuck it to her



He left her bleeding on the floor in the kitchen

With cake on her fingers and her wedding ring holding

In her hand was a note that said the wicked must suffer

And he drove off quickly to his girlfriend's apartment



But who really suffers in the end?

It's easy enough for us to pretend that



Everything's all right with the family

Everything is safe here at home

Everything's all right with the family

The beds are made but there's no sheets on



From the courtroom stand Tony, said he was sorry

That he was sad and mixed up and he didn't know what he was doing

That he'd always loved Alice and he begged for forgiveness

So he threw himself on the mercy of the jury



And he told how his father had beat and abused him

Back in grade school in the basement den

And that maybe prison was the best thing for him

And he said, "Oh God, can You forgive me?" Yeah



But who really suffers in the end?

It's easy enough for us all to pretend that



Everything's all right with the family

Everything is safe here at home

Everything's all right with the family

The beds are made but there's no sheets on



How many days does it take to make us weak?

And how many hours do people spend lonely?

In the heart of the heart, the family lay dying

The ruin of a nation lies at our feet, yeah



Everything's all right with the family

Everything is safe here at home

Everything's all right with the family

The beds are made but there's no sheets on



Everything's all right with the family

Everything is safe here at home

Everything's all right with the family

The beds are made but there's no sheets on
