[00:19.02]I write to give word the war is over
[00:25.54]Send my cinders home to mother
[00:30.73]They gave me a medal for my valor
[00:37.14]Leaden trumpets spit the soot of power
[00:41.94]They say, "I'm on your side
[00:47.22]"When nobody is, 'cause nobody is
[00:52.81]
[00:55.59]"Come sit right here and sleep
[01:00.09]"While I slip poison in your ear"
[01:05.54]
[01:08.47]We are waiting on a telegram
[01:10.42]To give us news of the fall
[01:14.45]I am sorry to report
[01:15.82]Dear Paris is burning after all
[01:20.31]We have taken to the streets
[01:21.91]In open rejoice revolting
[01:25.52]We are dancing a black waltz
[01:28.04]Fair Paris is burning after all
[01:44.59]
[01:45.61]Enclosed in this letter there's a picture
[01:51.24]Black and white for your refrigerator
[01:56.70]Sticks and stones have made me smarter
[02:03.03]It's words that cut me under my armor
[02:07.92]They say, "I'm on your side
[02:13.22]"When nobody is, 'cause nobody is
[02:19.83]
[02:21.54]"Come sit right here and sleep
[02:26.25]"While I slip poison in your ear"
[02:31.74]
[02:34.32]We are waiting on a telegram

[02:48.12]In open rejoice revolting
[02:51.97]We are dancing a black waltz
