It ain´t funny

A NO
a cold but burning afterglow
at random – any way to go
and an answer that gives anything but no breaks

in the clouds
to tell us what´s it all about
and your hush is far too loud
and I give a fuck on all this GIVE and TAKE

For it ain´t funny
no it ain´t funny
and I can´t get on with it
for my heart is too old

A smokin field
full of drunken memories
and two farmers on their knees
that go wild and burn there own great harvest down

The book we wrote
gave all its letters to the road
to dispatch it – flesh and bones
a king has gone to dig his rusty crown

For it ain´t funny
no it ain´t funny
and I can´t get on with it
for my heart is too old

For it ain´t funny
no it ain´t funny
and I can´t get on with it
for my heart is too old
and my soul is too old
and our love is too old
and my heart turned to stone
