GRATEFUL DEAD
- Touch Of Grey Lyrics / with translationsMust be getting early
Clocks are running late
Paint-by-number morning sky
Looks so phony
Dawn is breaking everywhere
Light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains I don't care 'cause
It's all right
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
I see you've got your list out
Say your piece and get out
Yes, I get the gist of it
But it's all right
Sorry that you feel that way
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining's got a
Touch of grey
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
It's a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
The ABC's, we all must face
And try to keep a little grace
It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC's, we all think of
Try to give a little love
I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears
But it's all right
The cow is giving kerosene
Kid can't read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene
But it's all right
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
The shoe is on the hand it fits
There's really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit
'Cause it's all right
Oh well, a touch of grey
Kind of suits you anyway
That was all I had to say
It's all right
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
Clocks are running late
Paint-by-number morning sky
Looks so phony
Dawn is breaking everywhere
Light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains I don't care 'cause
It's all right
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
I see you've got your list out
Say your piece and get out
Yes, I get the gist of it
But it's all right
Sorry that you feel that way
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining's got a
Touch of grey
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
It's a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
The ABC's, we all must face
And try to keep a little grace
It's a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC's, we all think of
I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It's even worse than it appears
But it's all right
The cow is giving kerosene
Kid can't read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene
But it's all right
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
The shoe is on the hand it fits
There's really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit
'Cause it's all right
Oh well, a touch of grey
Kind of suits you anyway
That was all I had to say
It's all right
I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
