A Little Man and a House – Cardiacs – letras

Leaving early, just before the hourA few moments won’t make any differenceNot to me, anywayThe early bird catches the wormI don’t really want to go in tomorrowThe man will tell me off for leaving early yesterdayClose your eyes dear, never mindAnd there’s voices inside meThey’re screaming and telling me »That’s the way we all go »There’s thousands of people just like me all overBut that’s the way we all goWhat can I do, when everyones been so helpfulHow can I have the right to sayI’m different to you?(Oh)But I’m lost not for words or for kindness or sympathyThat’s the way we all goAnd if you’re bigger you fall a bit harderBut that’s the way we all goThere’s a pain in my side it’s a lesson I learned from a while ago(That’s the way we all go)I’ll be screaming inside I’ll be biting my nails but it won’t show(That’s the way we all go)There’s a knock at my door as I fall to the floor but I still don’t know(That’s the way we all go)That the people outside shed a tear for my pride but they still won’t go(That’s the way we all go)Why should I think I’m alone the whole factory thinksThat’s the way we all goThen there’s Washington, Tokyo, New York and MoscowBut that’s the way we all goThey’re all crying and arguing down the telephoneBut that’s the way we all goThen there’s me standing here with my whole life to spareThat’s the way we all goThat’s the way we all goThat’s the way we all goThat’s the way we all goThat’s the way we all goIt’s easier when you know how obviously but that’s how it goes(That’s the way we all go)Look at me now I know something that you don’t ‘cosThat’s the way we all goThe turning wheel reeks of the whale and the whalerBut that’s the way we all goThe early bird catches the worm does the worm think thatThat’s the way we all go?
