Time it tells living in my home town
Wedding bells they begin easy
Live it down, baby don't talk that much
Baby knows, but baby don't tease me
In the park we could go walking
Drowned in the dark or we could go sailing
On the seaAlways here, always on time
Close call, was it love or was it just easy
Money talks when people need shoes and socks
Steady boys, I'm thinking she needs meI was just sipping on something sweet
I don?t need political processI got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door
I got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more
See I was thinking that I lost my mind
But it's been getting to me all this time
And it don't stop dragging me downSilently reflection turns my world to stone
Patiently correction leaves us all alone
And sometimes I'm a travel man
But tonight this engine's failingI still hear the children playingKick the can, kick the can, skip and blackjack
Steal a car and ring a round-rosy
Rock and roll, candyland, bogeymanRun away and give me your sneakersAcid rain, when Abel looked up at Cain
We began the weeping and wailing
A hurried high from pestilence pills and pride
It's a shame, we could have gone sailing
But heaven knows
Heaven knows everything
TranquilizeI got this feeling that they're gonna break down the door
I got this feeling they they're gonna come back for more
See I was thinking that I lost my mind
But it's been getting to me all this time
And it don't stop dragging me downSilently reflection turns my world to stone
Patiently correction leaves us all alone
And sometimes I'm travel man
But tonight this engine's failingI still hear the children playing
Dead beat dancers come to us and stay'Cause I don't care where you've been
And I don't care what you've seen
We're the ones who still believe
And we're looking for a page
In that lifeless book of hope
Where a dream might help you cope
With the Bushes and the bombs
Uh huh, tranquilized
