Beijing Songtext
von Melissa Ferrick

I′m digging a hole
In my backyard
I hit a rock and sprung water
I dove in
And ended up in Beijing

Stole me a bike
Joined up with the monks because silence
Is worth more these days
Oh, than A-O-L Time Warner
Or Martha Stewart stocks

If you can get it
Grab as much as you can
And hide it in your basement
For the next disaster
Silence for the next disaster, yeah, yeah


Oh, my guitar
Sounds so good
Because I can't tell you why
And if distance makes the heart grow fonder
Then, ooh, look at you and I, yeah
Look at you and I, yeah

If you can get it
Grab as much as you can
And hide it in your basement
And for the next disaster
A little perfection during your disaster
(Yeah, yeah, yeah-)
So, bring me down to where I can′t see
I'll pray for some medicine
Explain to you, I'm lost
You said, "You′re not lost, you′re free," yeah
You said, "You're free, baby"
You said, "You′re free, you're free, honey, you′re free"
You said, "You're free, you′re free"

If you can get it
And grab as much as you can
And hide it in your basement (yeah)
For the next disaster
Yeah, during your disasters


I'm digging a hole
I'm digging a hole
