Rocky III 07:14
As the floodlights are dying, I’m sitting here crying My blood is still drying into flakes on the floor of the ring upstairs The echoing, hollering, braying and brawling Of the crowd is emptying out of Madison Square The popcorn is squeaking, the janitor’s sweeping up Handbills that promised the fight, no, the war of the century Did I let you down when my face hit the ground? I hadn’t even gone two lousy rounds with that wrecking machine And it rings in my ears You know, it rings in my ears Like a bell, like a bomb It still rings in my ears They were calling his name (Laaaaaaaaaaang) They were calling his name. (Laaaaaaaaaaang) They were calling his name like they did mine yesterday. Who could say why I lost, but I did and it’s done Who could say why I lost my tiger eye, but I did and it’s gone. Yeah, I did and it’s gone, And there’s just a hole in my head There’s a hole in my head. He tore a hole in my head My dear Talia, a hole. And everyone’s gone now but you Everyone’s gone. Everyone left me but you, You and your brother Paul Everyone’s gone except your brother Paul, They’re stumbling and staggering and carrying on With the rest of their lives. And everyone’s gone except your brother Paul Now that there’s not a god damned thing left in the world that they want from me Everyone`s gone except your brother Paul And to top this nigh off Mick just fucking died in my locker room And the last thing I said as I cradled his head Was a goddamned lie It was a goddamn lie So even he’s gone now Even he’s gone now, now you’re all I got Everyone’s gone now but you and your brother Paul (fuck man, your brother) Everyone`s gone except your brother Paul And what does that say about me If he`s my last friend Everyone`s gone except your brother Paul And even with one good eye I see that asshole’s been drinking again Everyone’s gone except your brother Paul And what gypsy’s dog did I hit with my car To get cursed with that guy?

My heart is a bird And my body is a cage It beats its wings on the bars With a desperate rage It twitters and calls It whistles and it shouts It bellows and begs Let me out, Let me out My heart is a bird And this body is a cage It beats its wings on the bars As it flutters and flails It thunders and rolls It whimpers and howls It pummels and pleads Let me out, Let me out My heart is a bird My heart is a bird My heart is a bird And this body is its cage It shivers and moans It shudders and shakes It rumbles and roars Its thunderous sounds It whispers and weeps Let me out, Let me out My heart is a bird My heart is a bird My body is a cage But my heart is a bird
