Aftermath (1st Version) Lyrics

"Let me tell you about my mother..." ( From the film, Blade Runner )


Martina :


For one, (more poor boy), there's someone

For he for she

For one (more poor boy), there's someone

For him, for me


Tricky & Martina :


Your eyes resemble mine, you see as no others can

Here inherit my kingdom, speak of our people's plan

I'll be here for my baby, for my baby I'll be near

So many things I need to tell you, things you need to hear


Tricky :


It was a day like no other

Clocks [hanging off]

It was said they dropped the bomb

And I walked out the door

Feeling lonely, [I see rain/as a ray]

Thinking of what was once

So I go in search of people

[Song of] the inhabitants

The air is filled with chemicals

So this is the aftermath

Walking over rubble

Which was once [cause's calf]

Down to the center

Which used to be central


Martina :


So this is the aftermath


For one, (more poor boy), there's someone

For he for she

For one (more poor boy), there's someone

For him, for me


Tricky & Martina :


Your eyes resemble mine, you see as no others can

Here inherit my kingdom, speak of our people's plan

I'll be here for my baby, for my baby I'll be near

So many things I need to tell you, things you need to hear


Martina :


For one, (more poor boy), there's someone

For he for she

For one (more poor boy), there's someone

For him, for me


"How can I

"How can I

How can I be sure

In a world that's constantly changing

How can I be sure


Just when I thought I was winning

Just when I thought I could not be stopped

Just when I thought I was winning

Just when I thought I could not be stopped

how can I be sure
