Tekst Utworu

[Verse 1]
I've waited through the wars of winter
I've watched the cherry blossoms bloom
I cannot wait here any longer
I'm leaving at the rising of the moon
I know what lies beneath Manhattan
I know who's buried in Grant's Tomb
I wonder if they'll wait a while
To clear away my crocodile
I'm leaving at the rising of the moon
[Chorus]
They always ask me about Pravda
It's just the Russian word for truth
Your consciousness is not my problem
'Cause when I come home, it won't be home to you
[Verse 2]
Your uncle Henry lived in Moscow
Your aunt Ludmilla lived there too
Irina grew up in Wisconsin
I'm leaving at the rising of the moon
[Verse 3]
The final moments in a doorway
The final moments in a doorway
The sacred light of afternoon (The sacred light of afternoon)
Something starts to shake the leaves
You tug upon your t-shirt sleeves
And shiver till the rising of the moon
[Chorus]
They always ask me about Pravda
It's just the Russian word for truth
Your consciousness is not my problem
'Cause when I come home, it won't be home to you
[Verse 4]
I took the family balalaika
Those strings would never stay in tune
I hung it up by the piano
I'm leaving at the rising of the moon
[Verse 5]
I had a job once in Penn Station (I had a job once in Penn Station)
Down at a tie shop called Tiecoon (Down at a tie shop called Tiecoon)
Every time my shift began
I'd see that quiet businessman
I'm leaving at the rising of the moon
[Chorus]
They always ask me about Pravda
It's just the Russian word for truth
Your consciousness is not my problem
And I hope you know your brain's not bulletproof
