The Wino Has Something To Say
Whispers of Life: The Profound Tale from The Wino's Perspective
Lyrics
The wino has something to say
The wino has a message to convey
So listen and don't run away
Listen attentively and do not avoid
He's really a pal and he won't steal your gal
He is a friendly companion and won't pursue your romantic partner
The wino has something to say
Reiteration that the wino has something important to express
The wino was once a big man
The wino used to be a prominent figure
He sports a tattoo from Japan
He displays a tattoo from Japan
He'll tell you his name if
He'll disclose his name if you engage in a melancholic conversation
You play the sad game
Continuation of the condition for revealing his name
The wino was once a big man
Restating that the wino had a significant past
A traveller, a dreamer, a poor man, a schemer
He's a traveler, dreamer, poor man, and schemer
He knows about life much too well
He possesses profound knowledge about life
The streets of the city are alleys of pity
The urban streets are filled with compassion and misery
Really his heaven and hell
These streets constitute both his paradise and torment
The wino cools off in the rain
The wino seeks solace in the rain
He dreams of expensive champagne
He daydreams about indulging in expensive champagne
A bottle a day keeps the cruel world away
A daily bottle helps him escape the harsh reality
The wino cools off in the rain
Repetition of the wino finding comfort in the rain
A traveller, a dreamer, a poor man, a schemer
Reiteration of his multifaceted identity
He knows about life much too well
He has acquired extensive life experience
The streets of the cities are alleys of pity
Urban streets are both filled with compassion and misery
Really his heaven and hell
Reiteration that these streets are his dual paradise and torment
The wino has something to say
Reiteration that the wino has an important message
So listen, when you pass his way
Emphasis on listening when passing by the wino
