Down by the Seine (Drowning) - Lanterna

Everybody in the garden dreams

This is my life

I’ll lose as I please

As they carefully avoid

Each other’s scheme

Everybody on the train

Has to get somewhere

If they knew the secrets I do

They wouldn’t dare

Please, baby

Please, baby

Please, baby

Not me

'Cause I can’t take the pretty words

And the hostility

A man in a car

Has such a gnawing in his gut

Exactly like the nausea

And it grew

And it grew

And it grew

Tired

Of drowning out my angry scream

Please, baby

Please, baby

Please, baby

Not me

'Cause I can’t take the pretty words

And the hostility

It’s such a long, long way to go it seems

To see a public

A measure of his

Through the tangled webs he wove

Reaching out for him

Everybody in the garden dreams

He is cool

Please, baby

Please, baby

Please, baby

Not me

'Cause I can’t take the pretty words

And the hostility

Please, baby

Please, baby

Please, baby

Not me

'Cause I can’t take the pretty words

And the hostility

Everybody in the garden dreams

This is my life

I’ll lose as I please

As they carefully avoid

Each other’s screams

Everybody on the train

Has to get somewhere

If they knew the secrets I do

They wouldn’t dare

Please, baby

Please, baby

Please, baby

Not me

'Cause I can’t take the pretty words

And the hostility
