Line 'Em Up

Текст песни JAMES TAYLOR - Line &#039;Em Up <br/> I remember Richard Nixon back in &#039;74 and the final scene at the White House door<br />and the staff lined up to say good-bye, tiny tear in his shifty little eye,<br />he said, &quot;nobody knows me, nobody understands.<br />These little people were good to me, oh I&#039;m gonna shake some hands.&quot;<br /><br />Somebody line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br />Somebody line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br />( )<br />At that time my heart was all broke, I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke<br />and I turned away from my loving kind, try to leave my body and live in my mind<br />but it&#039;s much too much emotion to hold it in your hand.<br />They&#039;ve got waves out on the ocean, they&#039;re gonna wear away the land,<br /><br />Somebody line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br />Want you to line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br /><br />Oh, I&#039;ve seen corn in Kansas and I&#039;ve seen picket fences and certain cowboy dances.<br />I&#039;ve gone lining up for shows, I&#039;ve been safely placed in rows, sure I know how it goes.<br /><br />Another day goes by, little time machine, I&#039;m raking my brain over what it might mean<br />just to claim the time and to turn away, to make today today.<br />Who waits for you, lonely tired old toad?<br />It&#039;s your life laid out before you like the broken white line down the center of the road.<br /><br />Line &#039;em up line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br />Line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br /><br />Yeah, big moon landing, people are standing up,<br />smiles for the loved ones, they go walking on down the aisles.<br />Each re-engages stepping into the sun, I watch them turn like pages one by one by one,<br /><br />Want you to line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br />Line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up, line &#039;em up, line &#039;em all up.<br /><br />[Indecipherable French grunting]<br />
