Paul Gilbert - Koto girl

Tekst :

When she was two
Mama told her what to do
Sit and behave
Don t make a sound now
When she was eight
She had found a different fate
Moving her friends
Up and down now
When the clock had moved some more
She could open any door she pleased
She s a Koto girl
Playing eighteen string guitar
Been around
All the eastern world
She can t leave now, but her dreams still travel far
Now She is grown
Has a life all of her own
Plays all the time
Just to be seen now
I met her here
Drinking cold ASAHI beer
Or could have been
A grass of tsing tao
I walked up and asked her please
She replied hello in cantonese
She s a Koto Girl
Who knows what she wants to be
Been around
All the eastern world
But hopes someday for a life where she is free
Don t go away (I want to be with you)
I tried to say (Come on, let s see it through)
But she s got those
Stars in her eyes
Shanghai, goodbye
Signed a major record deal
Now she plays TV shows in high hells
She s a Koto girl
A dream come true superstar
Been around all the eastern world
But Koto girl wants to climb the billboard charts
She s a Koto girl
Playing eighteen strings guitar
What a sound
Heard around the world this Koto girl (Koto girl) has got her strings
Wrapped around my heart

    All right – oh babe
    Tears

    She always talked about the gods
    She had a direct line with the gods
    You’ve been selected by the gods
    She told me
    Ok, babe, let’s make it then

    (looking for trouble? have you got it? )

    What a man has...

    The man i am today

    When I was smaller wishing I was taller
    I woke up one morning and my mama was gone
    I tried to talk to my father he told me not to bother him
    he said boy being a man means being strong
    Now leave me alone

    So you say you wanna see behind the curtain
    you wanna...

    Only you

    Only you
    When I really get nothing to do
    Can t be true.

    Only you
    When I m looking for somebody new
    You re the clue.

    Only change my mind
    When I feel so blind
    Then you make me see
    Love is free.

    Only you
    When I...

    Nothing

    There was no fortune to be made here
    It s just a town like any other town
    Sure there must be good things left to say
    Can t think of one so, I won t say

    Nothing wears a pretty face in armor
    She got shine at the surface, coal below
    Nothing please don t...

    Favorite mistake

    To you my favorite mistake
    it looks like a second too late
    use these words to slit your throat
    i meant the words i just wrote

    your sick of trying, so am i
    you tried another suicide
    next time... cut harder

    promote your flaws
    show your mistakes
    6 feet underground
    you dig your own grave (2x)

    this lead to a loss...
