Emily Lyrics - Fools Garden

Emily's going out tonight 

with a candle in her pocket and a lighter in her right hand. 

Does anybody know 

why she's gonna go? 

She's nearly out of sight. 

Emily's out tonight. 

So familiar, 

how ladylike the old girl comes along. 

She's ninety something, 

dressed up and wide awake. 

A little slow, but going strong. 

She's paid off the overdraft 

for the TV she has bought in '84. 

She's been paying all her lifetime, 

but now she's gonna pay no more.

Deep religious, 

she went to mass on every Sunday morning. 

She's believing 

in God but she don't like 

the priest (he's new in town -and very boring). 

She's listened to his sermon well 

though she heard the same one 'hundred times before. 

She has heard them all her lifetime, 

but now she's gonna listen anymore. 

She's gonna do it today, 

she's going make it today 

she's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it. 

Emily's going out tonight 

with a candle in her pocket and a lighter in her right hand. 

Does anybody know 

why she's gonna go away? 

She's gonna make it today. 

Photos 

She's very friendly, 

an open minded and always understanding. 

Bad behavior 

she doesn't like at all. 

She's very modest, 

she's never been demanding. 

She's always followed every rule, 

though she didn't even know what they've been for. 

She has followed all her lifetime, 

but now she's gonna follow anymore. 

She's gonna do it today, she's 

gonna make it today 

she's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it 

right now. 

She's going make the world go round 

(and round and round...) 

She's gonna make it today... 

She's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it. 

Emily's going out tonight 

with a candle in her pocket and a lighter in her right hand. 

Does anybody know 

why she's gonna go away? 

Emily's going out tonight 

with a candle in her pocket and a lighter in her right hand. 

Does anybody know, 

where she's gonna go today? 

She's gonna go away, she's gonna go today. 

Emily's going out tonight 

with a candle in her pocket and a lighter in her right hand. 

Does anybody know 

where she's gonna go? 

She's nearly out of sight. 

Emily's out tonight...
