Smell the Roses歌词

作词 : Roger Waters
作曲 : Roger Waters
There's a mad dog pulling at his chain
A hint of danger in his eye
A long bell's raging 'round his brain
And the chimneys smoking in the sky
Wake up
Wake up and smell the roses
Close your eyes and pray this wind don't change
There's not much grims in the field of grims
Nothing but hope at the end of road
Nothing but gold and chimneys smoke
Come on honey, it's real money
This is the room where they make the explosive
Where they put your name on the bomb
Here's where they bury the "buts and the if's" and
Scratch our woods like life is long
Wake up
Wake up and smell the phosphorous
This is the room we keep for human air
Don't ask, don't tell, it could mean a loss for us
Yeah, a little less cash in the stash in the cover at the bottom of the stair
Money, honey
Wake up
Wake up and smell the bacon
Run your greasy fingers through her hair
This is the life you have taken
Just a line in the captain's log
Just a whine from a rescue dog
Another kid didn't mean to prey
Come on honey into fair trade
Wake up
Wake up and smell the roses
Throw a photo on a funeral pyre
Yeah, now we can't forget the threat she poses
Girl, you know you couldn't much higher
