  • Текст песни Tom Cochrane - Napoleon Sheds His Skin



    The streets are covered in chalk
    The shops are boarded up
    The bodies are carried back down from the square

    He begins to wonder
    If it always was this hot
    Or is it just the clothes
    That he now wears

    Napoleon sheds his skin
    In the summer when the sun is high
    He never knows when to quit
    When to stop...
    Or when to say die

    Pick the bones, get a tan
    Or wander
    Underground
    She would not have left him anyway
    Wait by the sea, wait in the sun
    As if the time
    Stood still
    Did he get involved
    In whichever side
    That paid

    Napoleon sheds his skin
    In the summer when the sun is high
    He never knows when to quit
    When to stop...
    Or when to say die

    ...And time stands still behind
    The distant gates
    Time moves on outside in the sun
    Then he wonders which side he's really on

    Then he doesn't care,
    It's so grey in there
    He just wants to get back to her...

    Napoleon sheds his skin
    In the summer when the sun is high
    He never knew when to quit
    When to stop...
    Or when to say die...

    She waits for him by the wharf
    By the sea where they used to go
    She sings a song that they'd sing
    Then waits for the echo...

    Na...poleon
    Sheds his skin
    Na...poleon
    Sheds his skin
    Na...poleon
    Sheds his skin

    I've got to get out of here
    Can she save me
    I've got to get out of here
    Can she save me
    I've got to get out of here...
    Can you hear me...
