DeVotchKa - The Clockwise Witness [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

It don't look right
In broad daylight
It don't feel right to me

If you win the rat race
If you come in first place
Then a rat is all you will be

And we say ooh

Now how long will this take?
How long must I wait?
My heart is sinking
What were we thinking?
I can't fake it anymore

In this moment
Of atonement
Can you ever forgive me?

Is there something hovering?
It seems to be governing
Everything once dear to me

And we say ooh

Now how long will this take?
How long must I wait?
My heart is sinking
What were we thinking?
I can't fake it anymore

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
