Joe Jackson - Tango Atlantico текст песни

Its xmas time again

Has it really been a year

And a soldier sighs again

And thinks about his kids and english beer

Pulls on his boots again

And steps into the pissing rain

And the clouds look just like dirty sheep

But at least hes got a job

And he knows he cant complain

And you may think that this song comes too late

But lest we forget

This tango atlantico isnt over yet

Can you imagine this

The general and the lady dance

She flashes victory signs and smokes cigars

He shines his medals up for one last chance

They make a pretty pair

But no one understands their game

Because they cant agree about the stakes

They cant agree on anything

They cant even agree on the name

And you may think that this song comes too late

But lest we forget

This tango atlantico isnt over yet

Sorry tommy . . . lost a foot? . . . bloody land mines . . . no more soccer for you . . .

And you may think that this song comes too late

But lest we forget

This tango atlantico isnt over yet
