Diamonds and Babies and Cars
My turn this time," he says.
"Never get better than this,
we never get better than bad."
"My turn this time," he said.
"Now I can do what I want,
now I can walk away mad."
"Cause last time we tried," he said.
"We never get anywhere
We never solve anything."
"It's my turn this time," he said.
And sticks out his chin like a man
Sticks out his chin like a man
"My turn this time," they cried.
And everyone walks in a line
Around in a circle until they die
"My turn this time," they scream.
And diamonds and babies and cars...
Don't add up to anything
"My turn this time," she says.
"I wish we could talk a bit more,
just give me a little more time."
"My turn this time," she says.
"My children are growing up mad,
they never get anywhere."
This time she starts to cry
And everyone stares at the ground
Nobody says a word
"You get one chance each life," she sighs.
"And mine is just passing me by."
He walks out the door and she stares up at the ceiling
"My turn this time," they cry.
And everyone walks in a line
Around and around in a circle until they die
"My turn this time," they scream.
And diamonds and babies and cars...
Don't add up to anything, at all
"My turn this time," he says.
And he turns the radio on
And he turns the radio off
"My turn this time," she says.
And she laughs at herself
And she laughs at herself
And the sun goes down
And the sun comes up
and the sun goes down
and the sun comes up
and the sun goes down
and the sun comes up
and the sun goes down
and the sun comes up
Diamantes y Bebés y Autos
Es mi turno esta vez, dice.
"Nunca mejora más que esto,
nunca mejoramos que mal."
"Es mi turno esta vez", dijo.
"Ahora puedo hacer lo que quiero,
ahora puedo irme enojado."
"Porque la última vez que intentamos", dijo.
"Nunca llegamos a ningún lado,
nunca resolvemos nada."
"Es mi turno esta vez", dijo.
Y saca su barbilla como un hombre,
saca su barbilla como un hombre.
"Es mi turno esta vez", gritaron.
Y todos caminan en fila,
alrededor en un círculo hasta que mueren.
"Es mi turno esta vez", gritan.
Y diamantes y bebés y autos...
no suman nada.
"Es mi turno esta vez", ella dice.
"Ojalá pudiéramos hablar un poco más,
solo dame un poco más de tiempo."
"Es mi turno esta vez", ella dice.
"Mis hijos están creciendo enojados,
nunca llegan a ningún lado."
Esta vez ella comienza a llorar,
y todos miran al suelo,
nadie dice una palabra.
"Tienes una oportunidad en cada vida", suspira.
"Y la mía simplemente me está pasando de largo."
Él sale por la puerta y ella mira al techo.
"Es mi turno esta vez", lloran.
Y todos caminan en fila,
alrededor y alrededor en un círculo hasta que mueren.
"Es mi turno esta vez", gritan.
Y diamantes y bebés y autos...
no suman nada, en absoluto.
"Es mi turno esta vez", dice.
Y enciende la radio,
y apaga la radio.
"Es mi turno esta vez", ella dice.
Y se ríe de sí misma,
y se ríe de sí misma.
Y el sol se pone,
y el sol sale,
y el sol se pone,
y el sol sale,
y el sol se pone,
y el sol sale,
y el sol se pone,
y el sol sale.
