Breaking Bread Lyrics

All day long, sweeping up the deads pigeons from the pavement 
After the long dim dawn 
He remembered how she pulled him from disaster into laughter. 

Well it didn't take long for him to be consumed 
and he turned around and said as her caressing resumed 
"We once were close but now we're both marooned, 
and what was once a stirring melody is now a distant tune." 
She said "You angel, you flower, you're powerful." 
but he felt no feelings but his head hot and belly full 
and basking in the sun he only feels a gas fire 
and he sees no apparent difference between the chimney and the church 
spire 
He says: "This garden of roses, is overgrown with weeds, 
and where the great west river flows I can see nothing but pebbles and 
reeds." 

All day long she stuck his nose into Siberia 
and dragged him through Hong Kong 
till she said "You carrier, you coward, you're pitiful, 
Feeling less and less is just an easy way of doing more wrong."
