| [00:02.160] |
Standing on the waters casting your bread |
| [00:04.480] |
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing. |
| [00:10.230] |
|
| [00:12.930] |
Distant ships sailing into the mist' |
| [00:15.550] |
You were born with a snake in both of |
| [00:18.360] |
your fists while a hurricane was blowing. |
| [00:21.110] |
|
| [00:23.130] |
Freedom just around the corner for you |
| [00:28.380] |
|
| [00:29.570] |
But with the truth so far off' what good will it do? |
| [00:34.820] |
|
| [00:37.130] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [00:40.760] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [00:44.330] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [00:49.330] |
|
| [00:51.890] |
So swiftly the sun sets in the sky' |
| [00:55.580] |
You rise up and say goodbye to no one. |
| [00:59.830] |
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread' |
| [01:05.770] |
Both of their futures' so full of dread' you don't show one. |
| [01:11.390] |
|
| [01:13.470] |
Shedding off one more layer of skin' |
| [01:18.100] |
|
| [01:19.789] |
Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within. |
| [01:23.910] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [01:30.850] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [01:34.410] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [01:40.110] |
|
| [01:41.360] |
You're a man of the mountains' you can walk on the clouds' |
| [01:44.800] |
Manipulator of crowds' you're a dream twister. |
| [01:49.550] |
|
| [01:51.800] |
You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah |
| [01:53.930] |
But what do you care? Ain't nobody there would want to marry your sister. |
| [02:00.610] |
|
| [02:03.110] |
Friend to the martyr' a friend to the woman of shame' |
| [02:09.550] |
You look into the fiery furnace' see the rich man without any name. |
| [02:15.180] |
|
| [02:17.110] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [02:20.610] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [02:24.110] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [02:30.430] |
|
| [02:41.550] |
Well' the Book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy' |
| [02:45.400] |
The law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers. |
| [02:50.710] |
|
| [02:52.150] |
In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed' |
| [02:56.340] |
Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features. |
| [03:01.450] |
|
| [03:03.330] |
Resting in the fields' far from the turbulent space' |
| [03:08.270] |
|
| [03:09.830] |
Half asleep near the stars with a small dog licking your face. |
| [03:15.200] |
|
| [03:17.400] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [03:20.900] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [03:24.140] |
Oh. oh. oh. Jokerman. |
| [03:30.960] |
|
| [03:41.890] |
Well' the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame' |
| [03:45.579] |
Preacherman seeks the same' who'll get there first is uncertain. |
| [03:50.390] |
|
| [03:52.829] |
Nightsticks and water cannons' tear gas' padlocks' |
| [03:56.270] |
Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain' |
| [04:01.270] |
|
| [04:03.390] |
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin' |
| [04:08.970] |
|
| [04:09.780] |
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in. |
| [04:14.910] |
|
| [04:17.279] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [04:20.850] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [04:24.350] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
| [04:30.300] |
|
| [04:41.850] |
It's a shadowy world' skies are slippery gray' |
| [04:45.659] |
A woman just gave birth to a prince today and dressed him in scarlet. |
| [04:52.470] |
He'll put the priest in his pocket' put the blade to the heat' |
| [04:56.159] |
Take the motherless children off the street |
| [04:58.720] |
And place them at the feet of a harlot. |
| [05:02.850] |
|
| [05:03.410] |
Oh' Jokerman' you know what he wants' |
| [05:10.540] |
Oh' Jokerman' you don't show any response. |
| [05:16.600] |
|
| [05:17.410] |
Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune' |
| [05:20.910] |
Bird fly high by the light of the moon' |
| [05:24.660] |
Oh' oh' oh' Jokerman. |
