LYRICS:
Close shave in Petralona.
My new friend walked me,
Hand in hand,
Down to that busy square.
You said: “Let’s head some place quieter”.
Athens is small,
Everybody knows you here.
You placed your hands
Over my ears.
You placed your hands
Over my ears.
This orange mush isn’t much
To write home about.
Your confidence is crushed,
Well,
You seem to do just as well without.
Thank you for sitting down with me
You said: “Don’t say thank you,
I choose to be here freely”.
You placed your hands
Over my eyes.
As you placed your hands
Over my ears.
Close shave in Petralona.
People drinking, taking pills, presenting,
And breathing that carnival air.
All the balconies were talking to me,
Shedding light in a way
Nothing else seemed to.
From somewhere I called out,
A scream.
“I think I might be done here”.
Won’t you place your hands over my eyes.
Would you place your hands over my ears.
Would you place your hands over my ears.
Would you place your hands over my ears.
