《Bill McCai(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] Bill McCai-The Coral

[00:00:10] Familytaught him right from wrong

[00:00:12] With local tales and children's songs

[00:00:14] Sunday school was his shelter

[00:00:16] With his friends Joe and Walter

[00:00:19] Now those days so far away

[00:00:21] An empty swing where he once played

[00:00:24] Now he's gone so fat and bald

[00:00:26] He never thought that he'd grow old

[00:00:29] An' everyday when he gets the train

[00:00:31] Looks out the window and he thinks in vain

[00:00:34] If I could only be that boy again

[00:00:40] Sales job it gets him down

[00:00:42] Same old faces same old sounds

[00:00:44] Heart attacks orthopedic backs

[00:00:47] Documents and labeled racks

[00:00:49] His wife can't stand the sight of him

[00:00:52] With his routine glass of gin

[00:00:54] She makes his lunch of processed ham

[00:00:56] I'm waiting for the meter man

[00:00:59] An' everyday when he gets the train

[00:01:01] Looks out the window and he thinks in vain

[00:01:04] If I could only be that boy again Take it away Bill

[00:01:28] He could be that boy again

[00:01:38] Another day another gin

[00:01:40] His kids don't even notice him

[00:01:42] Something different about his face

[00:01:45] His happy smile seems out of place

[00:01:47] Family gathered round for tea

[00:01:49] Eyes fixed on the new telly

[00:01:52] A news flash came then it said Bill McCai was just found dead

[00:01:57] No more windows no more trains

[00:01:59] Hung himself out in the rain

[00:02:02] Now he'll never be that boy again

[00:02:07] And we say Bye bye Bill McCai Bye bye Bill McCai Bye bye Bill McCai
