Dan Bern - Swoosh текст песни

Исполнитель: Dan Bern

альбом: The Burbank Tapes


Some people think the devil is all hairy and wild
Screaming in his underwear
But the devil likes his math to be correct
And the devil likes his corners square.
Wilt Chamberlain, who's probably seen plenty of the devil
Built a house without a square corner in it
Picasso liked to keep the devil out of his work
And I dare you to find a square in it
Now the thing about the Nazis
Wasn't only that they killed a lot of Jews
But they killed them and they kept these meticulous records
Of systems, procedures and rules
The devil was there in Germany
Checking off names and checking his math
Then going home to his little family
Eating sausages and running his bath
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh baby
Swoosh swoosh, swoosh baby.
Swoosh swoosh, swoosh baby.
Swoosh through the air with the greatest of ease, baby
Yeah the swoosh is the corporate sign of the beast
And the devil's in some Wall Street tower
Checking off who's in his pocket
Checking their shirts and their shoes and in their showers
Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan wear the checkmark
Smile for the camera and keep your mouth shut
And their shoes and their clothes and their checkmarks were made
By some barefoot kid in some little hut.
The horse on the Denver Broncos helmet
Is a new one that Nike designed
And on the horse's nose there's the checkmark
And they weren't gonna lose this time
Too much money can ruin things
It can ruin music, it can ruin sports
I give you permission to shoot me
If that devil shows up on my shorts.
So smile for the camera and show your pretty face
Smile for the camera, then lie
Smile and show us your checkmark
Smile for the camera, then die
I seen a car with a checkmark on the front bumper
And another checkmark on the rear
Sometimes the devil don't gotta buy his souls
Sometimes souls line up and volunteer
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh baby
Swoosh swoosh, swoosh baby.
Swoosh swoosh, swoosh baby.
Swoosh through the air with the greatest of ease, baby
So be careful when you step into boxes
Be careful who you let design your horse
Be careful who it is you're trusting
And be careful who you endorse
Wilt Chamberlain, who's probably seen plenty of the devil
Built a house without a square corner in it
I got a friend who's probably seen plenty of the devil
He built a round house, with lots of exits
The Egyptians built their pyramids
To keep the devil out of their house
Me, I'm scared to have a house at all
So I keep driving and I'm careful who I stop for
Swoosh swoosh swoosh baby
Swoosh swoosh swoosh baby
Swoosh swoosh swoosh baby
Swoosh through the air with the greatest of ease baby
