The Blondes Songtext

von Robert Pollard

All exposed your gentle face in the sun
Grab a mask and run away
To where opportunities bear repeat
To start and complete
What mirrors deceive
When competing for the blondes
The burden of the girls nobody goes for

Let's be callous as the legacy demands
How much can you think you know everyone?
How much can you show if to pay?
To go or stay?

Where you know
You will rise every morning
Where you wait for me to run
Like distant tagalongs
Like loyal companions
Wait for me to run

On your birthday grab a mask
Run away quickly and be born again
Every instance as you glide through the year
The cost is all clear
The price is all tears
When defeated by the blondes
Regrets of the boys no one will wait for

Within reason for what faculties remain
Time is forcing us to go everyone
And each with a hand you will take
The bed you will make

When you know
You will rise every morning
And you wait
For we arrive
Content like pioneers
Like royal women
Dead but still alive
