Beck - O Maria lyrics

O Maria

there is no one; nothing to see

the night is useless and so are we

cause everybody knows the fabric of folly

is fallin apart at the seams

and I`ve been lookin for a good time

but the pleasures are seldom and few

there`s no whiskey; there`s no wine

just the concrete and a worried mind

cause everybody knows death creeps in slow

til you feel safe in his arms...

and I`ve been lookin for a new friend

and I don`t care if he`s decrepit and gray

la la la la la...

o maria, haven`t you known

been so careless all on your own

cause everybody knows the circus is closed

and the animals have gone wild

and I`ve been looking for my shadow

but this place is so bright and so clean

there is no one; nothing to see

the night is useless and so are we

cause everybody knows the fabric of folly

is fallin apart at the seams

and I`ve been lookin for a good time

but the pleasures are seldom and few

la la la la la laaaa
