Mais uma das canções não gravadas

Hey people
ai vai mais um video de uma das canções inéditas e não gravadas pelo Switchfoot

Chama-se "Somebody's baby" a letra segui a baixo do video:



Introdução:

"I saw this woman this one night and she was um, she was uh, brushing her teeth, [she was] this homeless lady down by the beach, and I was walking on the beach late at night. And I remember thinking, that, brushing your teeth when you're homeless must be a real happy chore, and I realized her courage y'know--if, if perhaps that, there's, [if] you're gonna make it through the night and, [then there's] the need to take care of your teeth, y'know? And I just remembered thinking to myself, um, y'know it kind of bothered me all night and, that's when I wrote this song."

Letra:

"she screams.
she screams, well if you're homeless,
sure as hell you'd be drunk,
high or trying to get there,
or begging for junk.
when people don't want you,
they just throw you money for beer.

her name's November,
she went by autumn or fall, it's been
7 long years since the autumn when
all of her nightmares grew fingers and
all of her dreams grew tears.

she's somebody's baby
somebody's baby girl
she's somebody's baby
somebody's baby girl
she's somebody's baby still...

she says, well if you've never
gone it alone, well you go ahead,
do better, throw the first stone,
you got one lonely stoner,
waiting, brings you her knees.

she dreams about heaven, remembering hell,
the place that she visits and
knows all too well, every now and again
when she's hopeful, she brushes her teeth.

she's somebody's baby
somebody's baby girl
she's somebody's baby
somebody's baby girl
she's somebody's baby still...

today was her birthday, strangely enough
when the cops found the body at the foot of a bluff.
the anonymous caller explored and tipped off the police.
they got her ID from the dental remains
claimed fully intact, with the same nicotine stains... [cuts off]"
