LYRICS FOR "Chan's Song (Never Said)"
The woman in blue
The man in white
The river is swollen up with rusty cans
And the trees are burning in your promised land
And there are no letters in the mailbox
And there are no grapes upon the vine
And there are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
And there are no diamonds in the mine
Well
You say
Well
He was eating up a lady where the lions and Christians fight
And there are no letters in the mailbox
And there are no grapes upon the vine
And there are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
And there are no diamonds in the mine
(You tell them now)
Ah
Some very clever doctor went and sterilized the b****
And the only man of energy
He trained a hundred women
And there are no letters in the mailbox
Oh no
And there are
And there are no diamonds in your mine
And there are no letters in the mailbox
And there are no grapes upon the vine
And there are no chocolates in your boxes anymore
And there are no diamonds in your mine
