Lena Is A White Table lyrics

first you go up the hill
(don`t forget to sat the church)
the church why? i don`t know...
(in case they miss the turn)
let me do the talking
(you make mistakes sometimes)
well so do you too
never let me talk
-----
yaahhh - drink your beer
this is no suprise

they`re always arguing, they`re from down in...
(darts my friend?)
and when you reach the top
out on the scraggy backs just there
say - you must be new
a movie camera! (ooohh!)
WELL - I wouldn`t GO
(darts?) don`t! (over his shoulder as he goes to play darts)
WHO IS THAT WITH YOU?
(darts my friend?)

how does she hang the clothes
climb up on herself?

there`s a house(white)
a back porch(grey)
just a table there
(don`t forget the laundry line)
yes - nobody knows how far it goes(many men have died)
BALONEY/PHOOEY
past the fishing banks
probably past the edge of the earth maybe
OH COME ON
and sometimes there is a chair the table legs they never
move waiting and pressing and the clothesline stop don`t move
CHORUS:
well, maybe she should go to school
no,no...she`s a table
lena`s a white table

and in the afternoon
and in the autumn air
the porch is bare and still
there is a waiting there
and flint the laundry line
apples rolling down the hill

WINDOW:
i hope that she`s here
what if she`s not here
i don`t think she`s here
i hope she`s not here
don`t you think she`s here
i don`t think she`s here

and sometimes there is a chair the table legs they never
move waiting and pressing and the clothesline stop don`t move

CHORUS:
well, maybe she should go to school
no,no...she`s a table
lena`s a white table
well,maybe she should learn to pray
no,no...she`s a table
lena`s a white table
we saw her waiting by the line
which line? the laundry line
waiting for the clothes to dry
what if she freezes in mid-air?
no no no no no...
