Through & Through & Through - Joel Plaskett

I’m the Berlin Wall, I’m a communist

You’re a wreckin' ball in a summer dress

You’re the horizon line, I’m the last sunset

I might be goin' down, but I’m not set yet

I’m as white as a ghost, diggin' foolish gold

I will man my post, but I won’t do as I’m told

Got a purple heart from a bloody war

Can’t take it anymore, more, more

They say that good things come to those who wait

If you snooze then you lose

So don’t (h-h-h-) hesitate

Outta sight, outta mind, outta luck, outta wine

Don’t you say that I’m out of my fuckin' mind

I’ve been talking trash but it ain’t my fault

Every time I move somebody’s in my spot

They say that good things come to those who wait

If you snooze then you lose

So don’t (h-h-h-) hesitate

(You've got nowhere to go)

I know, I know, I know

(It's only you and me)

Oh but good things come in threes

You be April Stevens, I’ll be April Wine

You be Israel, I will be Palestine

Come on «Teach Me Tiger», come on and show me tricks

Let me take my time and take a couple lazy licks

(Are you feelin' blue?)

Through and through and through

(Where we find you now?)

Around, around, around

All the dirty blondes, playin' blue-eyed soul

You won’t hear our songs on your radio

Every note we sing can’t be solid gold

Every boy can’t be Romeo

They say that good things come

To those who wait

Good things come

If you take the bait

At a rummage sale

(At the Sally Ann!)

Everything is cheap

Love should last a life

(Or at least a year)

But it lasts a week

I’m the Berlin Wall

(And that ain’t all)

I’m a total mess

You’re a wrecking ball

(I'm a wrecking ball)

In a summer dress

(Are you feelin' blue?)

Through and through and through

(Where we find you now?)

Around, around, around

All the dirty blondes, playin' blue-eyed soul

On the radio

I can’t take it anymore, more, more
