Bolshoi Away Lyrics

Away Lyrics

We're in love, let's be together

Happy times or heavy weather

Mother says, today's a special day

So let's not fight, okay, yeah



When you were at school, you were a honey

The boys all loved you, you loved their money

The boys would stare, you'd cross your legs

And then you'd toss your hair



Away

Yes, you get by

Away



Money's scarce, but family honor

Brings it home, brings it home

And down the shop, their tongues they snicker

TV dinners, beer and liquor, oh yeah



Skeletons fall out of cupboards

Curtains drawn, fall open to allow

The light shows up the dust

That plays around your face



Away

Yes, you get by

Away



Away

Yes, you get by

Away



Innocence and lies don't make a perfect match

Leave your door unlatched

I know a word could be untrue

And yet still move you



And all that time they bring their friends 'round

Dress you up, show you up

And all the time they told you it was true

Well, I'll believe you now



But then I just don't know

I think I have to reconsider, yeah

I know when she got married

She looked fine in white and lacy frills



Oh yeah, she had a baby

It was painful, it was worth it

And all the time they stuck the knife in

Pulled it up and twist it around



Away

Yes, you get by

Away



Away

Yes, you get by

Away



Away

Oh, yes, you get by

Away



Well, that's fine, fine, fine
