Paroles de American Poster

I fell from the fortieth floor of a skyscraper out of gold On an American poster, on an American poster Diamonds and pearls on a ship on the horizon Me and my beloved hiding in the locker Guitars and gear in a blood coloured container Under our feet ocean’s music is playing Almonds and pears on a trip over the atlantic John and some musicians are playing in the attic Sitars and drum in a rust-covered cantina Under our feet ocean’s music is playing We were dancing long ago We were dancing on our own On an American poster, on an American poster I fell from the fortieth floor of a skyscraper out of gold On an American poster, on an American poster Raisins and rum are afloat in the darkness Chief and the spectators are climbing down the ladder Vocals and shouting in an everlasting hour Under our feet ocean’s music is playing Tables and chairs are on drift in the ballroom Me and my beloved are skating on the huddle Fiddles and cello in the steel armoured deck Under our feet ocean’s music is playing We were dancing long ago We were dancing on our own On an American poster, on an American poster I fell from the fortieth floor of a skyscraper out of gold On an American poster, on an American poster It’s a rough of a time It’s a rough of a time
