The Earthquake In Los Angeles (february, 1971) 가사

The telephone rang My sister calling I got to run, I said No no no no no I just want to tell you To tell you Dad is dead Dad is dead? Well, when did it happen? Six AM, said she New York time or California? New York time I see The telephone rang The week of the earthquake Death was still in the air At six'o one The walls came down They never had a prayer Dad is dead? Well, how is mother? Good, as she can be I said when dad was going Did he happen To ask For me? Remember the way I used to time step Lord, it made him proud He told his friends (He never told me) That I stood above the crowd Remember the way He played the Jew's harp Till he broke a tooth Why'd he have to turn against me? He loved me Once In his youth But Jesus I couldn't live his life Make his fantasies real I couldn't be him I had to be me I couldn't make up for the deal The dirty deal He got in this world He got in a treacherous world Where six am suddenly breaks With senseless death and shocking quakes Senseless death and shocking quakes
