Píseň: The Calculation

Interpret:
Regina Spektor
Album:
Far
You went into the kitchen cupboard
Got yourself another hour and gave
Half of it to me
We sat there looking at the faces
Of the strangers in the pages
Till we knew them mathematically


They were in our minds
Until forever
But we didn't mind
We didn't know better


So we made our own computer
Out of macaroni pieces
And it did our thinking
While we lived our lives
It counted up our feelings
And divided them up even
And it called our calculation:
Perfect love


Didn't even know
That love was bigger
Didn't even know
Didn't even know that love was so, so
Hey hey hey hey


Hey this fire, hey this fire
I'm burning us up
Hey this fire, hey this fire
I'm burning us
Oh, oo oo oo, oo oo oo oo


So we made the hard decision
And we each made an incision
Past our muscles and our bones
Our hearts were little stones


Pulled 'em out they weren't beating
And we weren't even bleeding
As we lay them on our granite counter top


We beat 'em up against each other
We beat 'em up against each other
We struck 'em hard against each other
We struck 'em so hard, so hard till they sparked


Hey this fire, hey this fire
I'm burning us up
Hey this fire, hey this fire
I'm burning us up
Hey this fire, hey this fire
I'm burning us
Oh, oo oo oo, oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo [until song fade]
