lirik lagu things snowball (live) – john wesley harding
[intro]
this song i wrote with peter case, though. and, uh, we wrote this one in 1612.
one, two, one two three four
[verse 1]
you might remember this conversation when you get older
you, you could realise your biggest lies on a movie screen
but if you lose all recollection
or misplace your sense of direction
well, here’s a quarter taped to the number of my phone
[chorus]
when childish habits slow to die
you might look up and wonder why
things snowball in the twinkling of an eye
[verse 2]
you could be paying for the present on your expenses
well, you could realise your biggest lies on a movie screen (deja vu)
you could be living in a mansion
your corporation in expansion
with a broken heart that far exceeds your wildest dreams
[chorus]
when childish habits slow to die
you might look up and wonder why
things snowball in the twinkling of an eye
[bridge]
somewhere way under the rainbow
dragging ’round an empty pot of glue
bruised and confused it could happen to you

[accordion solo]
it’s pure
he gets paid by the note and he’s a generous man: robert lloyd
just remember the payment line
[verse 3]
i was living for free up the stairs from a mortuary
well, he could hear me bring the bodies home at night
he tried to say, “i was just like you”
i shouted back, “you’re an old fool”
well he said, “listen” and i told him, “i’d rather die”
now i changed my mind
[chorus]
’cause childish habits slow to die
you might look up and wonder why
things snowball
things snowball
things snowball in the twinkling of an eye
[outro]
thank you.
um, if you could just turn the pump organ down a little bit in my monitor? robert in eugene in a fit of madness bought this incredibly beautiful new pump organ, which still has the price tag on it. (it’s incredibly old.) and, uh, it’s an old pump organ. and uh, we share a room sometimes, and he kept me up all night pumping it the first night. and uh, what? no idea. and uh—
