All Thing

[Verse 1] Keep it in your palm Or hold it like a stone Was heavy on your hand and you don't want it But it's yours And there was someone in the room And they were banging on the wall There were lights from under the door And you were laughing at the jokes And the table was laid And outside in the street, outside They were singing all night long [Chorus] Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems They were singing Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems But I couldn't sing along [Verse 2] There's an old man at the door With a box of tricks and a candelabra And I hеld it in my hand I held it like a stone Past unеxploded continental bombs The countryside screams Merry was the song They were singing as they went along [Chorus] Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems Standards, hymns and anthems And I couldn't sing along But I couldn't sing along But I couldn't sing along
