Take to the Sky Songtext
von Tori Amos

This house is like Russia
With eyes cold and grey
You′ve got me moving in a circle
I dyed my hair red today

I just want a little passion
To hold me in the dark
I know I've got some magic
Buried, buried deep in my heart

But my priest says, you ain′t saving no souls
My father says, you ain't making any money
My doctor says, you just took it to the limit
And here I stand, withthis sword in my hand

You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while I take to the sky
Take to the sky


My heart is like the ocean
It gets in the way
So close to touching freedom
Then I hear the guards call my name

But my priest says, you ain′t saving no souls
My father says, you ain′t making any money
My doctor says, you just took it to the limit
And here I stand, withthis sword in my hand

You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while I take to the sky
Take to the sky

Voice 1:
If you don′t like me just a little, well, why do you hang around
If you don't like me just a little, well, why do you hang around
If you don′t like me just a little, well, why do you take it, take it, take it, take it, take it

Voice 2:
There she, there she, there she goes again, wearing those purple panties
There she, there she, there she goes again, wearing her heart
There she, there she, there she goes again, why do you take it

This house is like Russia


You can say it one more time
You can say it one more time
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat while I take to the sky
Take to the sky
Take to the sky
Take to the sky
Take to the sky
