paul kelly - tell us a story (part a) lyrics

[verse 1]
tell us a story, mary
close the door and dim the light
tell us a story, mary
we’re going nowhere else tonight
tell us the one about the beggar and the king
or the one about the gollum and the ring
tell us a story, mary
a great long story

[verse 2]
tell us a story, davey
one to make our blood run cold
tell us a story, davey
make a new one from the old
tell us of the falling out of best and oldest friends
and of the hero with a heart that nevеr mends
tell us a story, davey
a grеat long story

[verse 3]
tell us a story, danny
with hungry ghosts that fly and walk
tell us a story, danny
one with animals that talk
once upon a time a prince got turned into a frog
then with one kiss went to the palace from the bog
tell us a story, daniel
a great long story
[bridge]
maybe a story that you’ve never told before
is there a secret that keeps knocking at your door?
i got a story that makes me burn with shame
and everybody here i guess could say the same

[verse 4]
tell us a story, georgie
of the water turned to wine
tell us a story, georgie
of the sailors turned to swine
or the doom of cleopatra with a serpent at her breast
and the heart of that great soldier
the one who loved her best
tell us a story, georgie
a great long story

[outro]
la, la+la, la+la, la+la, la+la, la+la
la, la+la, la+la, la+la, la+la, la+la
la, la+la, la+la, la+la, la+la, la+la
