Staring at the sun
with no pants on
high round and rosy
she thinks she knows me
fighting off a cold
murdering a c ampfire song
Spitting in the wind
from out a fast train
or on a causeway
trying to catch a bus
swear I gotta move
suffering the r adio crime
so whistle in the sweet pine trees
the imaginary airport breeze
it flickers and flows
fans fires in the road and
al l we want to do is go home
Someone's gonna break your heart
one cold gray m orning
but she sings:
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa-oh
Should we take this town?
Do we want to
tear the whole thing down
paint the rubble all
tangerine
shimmer in the g as main fires
We don't promise and we tell no lies
learn to paddle when the waters rise
melancholy comes
like the r obin at your window
whistle in the sweet pine trees
the imaginary airport breeze
it flickers and flows
fans fires in the road and
al l we want to do is go home
Someone's gonna break your heart
one cold gray m orning
the kids sing:
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa-oh
And the traffic goes round and round
swallowing the road and spitting out clouds
and the spirit she hides
on a damp path of moss and stone
from a fear we are born with and n ever outgrow
And what else you can keep
your American c ash and smile
and the suits sing:
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh (Someone's gonna break your heart
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-oh-oh (Someone's gonna break your heart
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-oh-oh (Someone's gonna break your heart
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
wh oa-whoa
oh-oh-whoa
oh-oh-whoa
