In My Pocket (Live from Melbourne, December 2021) [Original Line-up Final Tour] Songtext
von The Cat Empire

I′ve got a key
And a piece of paper in my pocket deep
In my pocket piece of paper and a key
As I wander through the streets
Oh, why is there a war
Or is there isn't a war anymore?
Somebody told me that nothing is for sure
Do you hear the ocean roar?

On each street is a tree
In the distance the desert sleeps
Sometimes a sigh is a song
And a breath is a melody
All oceans rise and oceans fall
So just what does forever mean?
I give a smile, I give a song
For one moment eternity


And we sing
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Oh, but it′s a mob
Some mob that brought me here, I know it is my job
To take my coffin, Nanna, thank you for this mob
Remember you, now you are gone
So, if I went away
Tropical island somewhere sunny every day
But everyone I ever cared about remained
Would I tan or would I fade?

So every morning he wake
Spend his day after the daybreak
And every spoonful he take
Be of something his own make
Oh, oceans rise and mountains fall
So just what does forever mean?
I give a smile, I give a song
For one moments eternity


And we sing
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Everybody
Let's make some big noise, big noise
And saying goodbye on a disc, DJ Drums give it up

So every morning he wake
Spend his day at the daybreak
And every spoonful he take
Be of something his own make
And oceans rise and mountains fall, moutains fall
So just what does forever mean?
I give a smile, I give a song
For one moment eternity

And we sing
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Thank you so much
DJ Drums in the disc
