The Peddler of Bombast is a song in English
I was wearing a suit and tie riding to the city, girls
Gratis, speaking someone's lines, hoping for another world
Sometimes I think of dying
But you know that I ain't got the time
Sometimes I think of trying
What's the plan supposed to be?
All written in the stars, define time, rhyme
And that's all fine
I was drinking all alone, sadder kind than cool and strong
Thinking maybe I'd outgrown swelling hearts and sappy song
Sometimes I think of crying
But you know that I ain't got the time
Sometimes I think of buying
What I can with soul for sale
A rider pale is dining on our time
And that's not fine
But then the swelling hearts begin to rhyme
We need love and also love
Forget about hell underground, ditch that heaven up above
You're here right now
You're here right now
Look around you fool, right now
We need love and still more love
Yesterday is history and tomorrow isn't good enough
Without love
You're here right now
Here right now
Here right now
Right now
I saw you when you walked in, I think that you're beautiful
You were always he inside, now him, I think you are beautiful
I know sometimes you think of dying
I say kill that in your mind
Because you've conquered flying
You're ahead of all our time
You're in your prime
You are fine
So damn fine
Do you think that we might get wise?
We need love and also love
Forget about hell underground, ditch that heaven up above
You're here right now
Here right now
Look around you fool, right now
Hope in love and still more love
Yesterday is history and tomorrow isn't good enough
Without love
You're here right now
Here right now
Here right now
Hear right now
Here right now
Right now
I was wearing a suit and tie riding to the city, girls
You know sometimes I keep on trying
For that you know I've got the time
And that's all fine
