A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal
You look so tired, unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us
I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxideWith no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silentThis is my final fit
My final bellyacheWith no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, pleaseSuch a pretty house
And such a pretty gardenNo alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please
