Telling stories (исполнитель: Tracy Chapman)
(alternately double [bad word] string and string)
[Verse 1]
There is fiction in the space between
The lines on your page of memories
Write it down, but it doesn't mean
You're not just telling stories
[bad word]
(2x)
[Verse 2]
There is fiction in the space between
You and reality
You would do and say anything
To make your everyday life seem less mundane
There is fiction in the space between
You and me
[bad word]
(2x)
[Verse 3]
There's a science fiction in the space between
You and me
fabrication, a grand scheme
I am the scary monster
Need to say it as I leave the scene
In my spaceship I am laughing
Your remembrance of a bad dream
There's no one but you standing
[bad word]
(2x)
[Bridge]
Feel the pity and the pain for the ones who do not speak
Back the words you get respect [bad word] and for posterity
Spread the words and make believe there is [bad word] in the space between
[bad word]
(same style as Intro)
[Verse 4]
There is fiction in the space between
You and everybody
Give us all what we need
Give us one more sad, sordid story
In the fiction of the space between
N.C.
Sometimes a lie is the best thing
N.C.
Sometimes a lie is the best thing
Oh, best thing
Is the best thing
[Outro]
(Repeat Intro)
