Fool's Garden - Emily lyrics



Emily's going out tonight,
With a candle in her pocket and
A lighter in her right hand,
Does anybody know
Why's she's gonna go?
She's nearly out of sight.
Emily's out tonight

So familiar - How ladylike
The old girl comes along
She's ninety something,
Dressed up and wide awake,
A little slow but going strong,
She's paid off the overdraft for the TV
She had bought in 84
She's been paying all her lifetime
But now she's gonna pay no more.

Deep religious - She went to mass
On every sunday morning
She's believing in God but she don't like
The priest he's new in town - and very boring
She's listened to his sermon well -
Though she's heard the sam one hundred times before
She's heard them all her lifetime,
But now she's not gonna listen anymore.

Emily's going out tonight,
With a candle in her pocket and
A lighter in her right hand,
Does anybody know
Why she's gonna go away?
She's gonna make it today.

She's very friendly and open minded-
Always understanding
Bad behaviours, she doesn't like at all,
She's very modest, she's never been demanding.
She's always followed every rule
Though she didn't even know what they've been for
She has followed all her lifetime
But now she's not gonna follow anymore.

Emily's going out tonight...
