The Bolshoi - A Way

We're in love, let's be together Happy times or heavy weather Mother says, "today's a special day" So let's not fight, okay, yeah When you were at school you were a honey The boys all loved you, you loved the money The boys would stare, you'd cross your legs And then you'd toss your hair Away Yes you get by Away Money's scarce, but family honor Brings it home brings it home And down the shop, the tongues they snicker TV dinners, beer and liquor... oh yeah Skeletons fall out of cupboards Curtains drawn fall open to allow The light shows up the dust That plays around your face Away Yes you get by Away Away Yes you get by Away Innocence and lies don't make a perfect match Leave your door unlatched I know a word can be untrue And yet still move you All the time they bring their friends 'round Dress you up, show you up And all the time they told you it was true Well I'll believe you now But then I just don't know I Think I have to reconsider, yeah I know when she got married She looked fine in white and lacy frills Oh yeah, she had a baby It was painful, it was worth it And all the time they stuck the knife in Pulled it up and twist it around Away Yes you get by Away Away Yes you get by Away Away Yes you get by Away Well that's fine, fine, fine
