Letra de Line 'Em Up

[Verso 1]
I remember Richard Nixon back in '74 and the final scene at the White House door
And the staff lined up to say good-bye, tiny tear in his shifty little eye
He said, "nobody knows me, nobody understands
These little people were good to me, oh I'm got to shake some hands."

[Coro]
Somebody line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up
Somebody line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up

[Verso 2]
At that time my heart was all broke, I looked like ashes and smelled like smoke
And I turned away from my loving kind, try to leave my body and live in my mind
But it's much too much emotion to hold it in your hand
They've got waves out on the ocean, they're got to wear away the land

[Coro]
Somebody line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up
Want you to line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up

[Verso 3]
Oh, I've seen corn in Kansas and I've seen picket fences and certain cowboy dances
I've gone lining up for shows, I've been safely placed in rows, sure I know how it goes
Another day goes by, little time machine, I'm raking my brain over what it might mean
Just to claim the time and to turn away, to make today today
Who waits for you, lonely tired old toad?
It's your life laid out before you like the broken white line down the center of the road

[Coro]
Line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up
Line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up

[Verso 4]
Yeah, big moon landing, people are standing up
Smiles for the loved ones, they go walking on down the aisles
Each re-engages stepping into the sun, I watch them turn like pages one by one by one

[Coro]
Want you to line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up
Line them up, line them all up, line them up, line them all up
