sonnerie téléphone portable pour Closed circuits

Well i know who you are, baby.
I’ve seen you go into that meditative state.
You’re the snake charmer, baby.
And you’re also the snake.
You’re a closed circuit, baby.
You’ve got the answers in the palms of your hands.

Well i saw a blind judge
And he said: i know who you are
And i said: who?
And he said: you’re a closed circuit, baby.
He said: the world is divided into two kinds of things.
There’s luck, and there’s the law.
There’s a knock on wood that says: it might.
And there’s the long arm of the law that says: it’s right.
And it’s a tricky balancing act between the two because both are equally true.
’cause might makes right
And anything could happen. che sarà sarà. am i right?

Who? do. who? do.
Who do you love?

Well i saw a couple of hula dancers just hula-ing down the street.
And they said: well i wonder which way the tide is gonna roll tonight?
And i said: hey hold up hula dancers! you know the tide’s gonna roll out

And then it’s gonna roll right back in again.
’cause it’s a closed circuit, baby. we got rules for that kind of thing.
And you know the moon is so bright tonight.

Who? do. who? do.
And don’t think i haven’t seen all those blind a-rabs around. i’ve seen ’em around.
And i’ve watched them charm that oil right out of the ground.
Long black streams of that dark electric light.
And they said: one day the sun went down and it went way down, into the ground.
And three thousand years go by and we pump it right back up again.
’cause it’s a closed circuit, baby.
We can change the dark into the light and vice versa.

Well i know who you are, baby.
I’ve watched you count yourself to sleep.
You’re the shepherd, baby.
And you’re also one, two, three hundred sheep. i’ve watched you fall asleep.

Well i was up real late last night.
Must have just dropped off to sleep.
’cause i saw you were crying, baby.
You were crying in your sleep.
You’re the snake charmer, baby. and you’re also a very long snake.
You’re a closed circuit, baby.
You’ve got the answers in the palms of your hands.
