Attic lyrics
by Jill Sobule
[Intro]
One, one
One, two, three
Yup, let's go
[Verse 1]
Would you have hidden me in your attic?
That's the question I'd like to know
Would you have climbed up to serve me dinner?
Well, I hope so
[Verse 2]
When the jack-booted men wore those great uniforms
Would you have wanted the blackest?
Would you have hidden me in your attic?
[Bridge]
And if let's say in some café
We saw the tanks roll by
Would you take my hand and lead me
Cross the border line?
Would you have hidden me in your attic?
[Clarinet Solo]
[Bridge]
If the neighbors accused me of casting spells
And bowing down to the gods in hell
You would leave me there alone
Or would you cast the very first stone?
You'd be there to ease my pain
Or pack me on that awful train
[Verse 3]
Would you have hidden me in your attic?
That's the question I'll never know
Would you have climbed up to serve me dinner?
Well, I hope so
