There's a light that just won't go out
No matter what they try to do
'Cause you can't pull out the circuits
Remove the bulb or blow the fuse
And it just might be the brightest star
Discovered yet by man
But it might as well be a pin hole
From where we stand
There are times when I thought
It'd be easy to ignore
But it just takes one look
And I don't believe my theory anymore
I won't get upset, ...
I broke the door
I broke the furniture
A painted picture
did it for you
telephone
I let it ring
Don't mean anything
except for you
I said goodbye
to my whole family
I hope they'll miss me
as much as you
It's where we're from and we'll always be
But we won't let 'em get to us
So come on, come on, we choke on the dirt
So come on, come on, we choke on the dust
But we won't let 'em get to us
Burning the cow
Burning the cow for so long
Oh, oh, oh
They got new lights up above
But you know it's the same
And we won't let 'em get to us
So come on, come on, we choke on the dirt
Yeah, come on, come on, ...
So you did what you thought was right
Oh giving up the fight
The only way that we knew was wrong
Got me hanging on and on
It?s everything you want
Everything you need
And the people who counted on
Let you down one by one
So be sure what you?re asking for
Telephone don?t ring no more
It?s everything you want
Everything you need
Ooh in the right crowd
Face down in the right town
No good uptown
B...
Always been down with one of them too
You were the fake and I was the fool
But you were too young to know all the rules
So I was the fake and you were the fool
Something undone, words went unsung
I'll never be clean, you know what I mean
But you were too young to know all the rules
So I was the fake and you were the fool
Something that's warm, something that's good
Can never be free, not that ...
You know we're trying but you're still not smiling
Undercover from the sun that's shining for you
A blind date with the broken hearted
Sleeping tight while the war's just started all around you
We gotta know, who you fighting for?
You know we love you but we're just not certain
About the colors of the walls and curtains, we thank God
So stay awake with your thoughts and the silence
Reacquainte...
Call in the air strike, tell them to make the drop
Initiate a cycle no one but you can stop
Would it be fair to say that you're in love with love?
And is that enough?
I bet you feel really potent stuff
The shadows of doubt on how things turn out are typically gray
But even the stopped clock on the wall is right two times a day
And it's still enough
Just how much distance means we're on our own...
Turn out the lights
And everything is fine
Lock down the doors
And that's what we're paying you for
One more smack in the mouth
Learn what fear is all about
Open your eyes
Find your faith in Jesus Christ
And we're down underground
Hiding out upside down
Just because, just because
Just because I don't believe in you
And we're down underground
Hiding out upside down
Just because, just because
Ju...
No one likes to be alone
Coming down on the telephone
Across the city, across the sea
And come back, baby, connect to me
Wrote you a letter, sent to your heart
And backwards rewinds to the start
And sweet little words of therapy
To come back, baby, connect to me
And the phone calls
And the shooting stars
We'll be fine
Oh yeah, never mind, just never mind
And the phone calls
And the shooting st...
Did you find what you're looking for?
Dinner for three up on the stove
It's alright, we'll leave it all alone
And it was nice, we'll miss you, now off you go
Her little head is off to sleep
Poor little girl, she looks just like me
It's alright, we'll leave it all alone
And it was nice, we'll miss you, now off you go
It's alright, we'll leave it all alone
And it was nice, we'll miss you, now of...
No, you don't remember
the town where you were born
cause they never no no never
opened up the doors
in a dream that you were dreaming
they'll open them for sure
it's the town you don't remember
the town where you were born
well you wiped out all your footsteps
and you wiped out all your foes
for the comfort and the safety
that comes when you're alone
it's the town you don't remember
the town ...
Right before you go to bed
I'll still be buzzed around just like you said
And we'll get down to the end
We drink on the job
Our heads are sad, our bones are tired as hell
But Ronnie's still got a few stories to tell
And we'll get down to the end
We drink on the job
And we'll get down to the end
We drink on the job
And we'll get down to the end
We drink on the job
It's been a while
But we're so happy
Yeah, we're so happy
Uh huh
To wash our feet off
To hang upside down
Uh huh
To call someone out
Just to come out here
Uh huh
We won't cause we're happy
Yeah we're happy
Uh huh
Yeah, we're so happy
We're so happy
Uh huh
We're so happy
Ha
Yeah, were so happy
We're so happy
Uh huh
We're so happy
We're happy
Uh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh
And we left the piano
In ...
