[length: 03:28]
[00:35.62]I saw some people starving
[00:38.04]There was murder, there was rape
[00:40.90]Their villages were burning
[00:44.08]They were trying to escape
[00:47.07]I couldn’t meet their glances
[00:49.62]I was staring at my shoes
[00:52.63]It was acid, it was tragic
[00:55.42]It was almost like the blues
[01:03.01]It was almost like the blues
[01:10.39]I have to die a little
[01:13.11]Between each murderous plot
[01:16.24]And when I’m finished thinking
[01:19.07]I have to die a lot
[01:21.85]There’s torture, and there’s killing
[01:25.02]And there’s all my bad reviews
[01:27.82]The war, the children missing, lord
[01:31.18]It’s almost like the blues
[01:38.29]It’s almost like the blues
[01:45.50]Though I let my heart get frozen
[01:48.23]To keep away the rot
[01:51.46]My father says I’m chosen
[01:54.36]My mother says I’m not
[01:57.39]I listened to their story
[01:59.82]Of the gypsies and the Jews
[02:02.78]It was good, it wasn’t boring
[02:05.98]It was almost like the blues
[02:13.06]It was almost like the blues
[02:20.73]There is no God in heaven
[02:23.14]There is no hell below
[02:27.14]So says the great professor
[02:29.67]Of all there is to know
[02:32.45]But I’ve had the invitation
[02:35.29]That a sinner can’t refuse
[02:38.28]It’s almost like salvation
[02:41.13]It’s almost like the blues
[02:48.76]It’s almost like the blues
[03:00.50]Almost like the blues
[03:12.07]Almost like the blues
[03:26.28]Almost like the blues
