In a down-and-out town
|
Living can kill your dreams
|
In this down-and-out house
|
Ambition bursts through the seams
|
I'm sure the neighbours know well
|
We always stood on broke eggshells
|
|
Little broken old bar
|
A number can clean you out
|
So you hurry on home
|
And so your credit card shouts
|
We're never taken in hearts
|
We spend each day on the bones of our arts
|
You're the story of my life
|
|
Send me a match with your letter
|
A canister follows me 'round
|
Send me a match with your letter
|
So I can burn the house down
|
|
In the cigarette smoke
|
There lays an empty purse
|
In the cigarette smoke
|
I meant to have you hurt
|
Yet there's nothing I've seen
|
That could compare with you and me
|
She's the story of my life
|
|
Send me a match with your letter
|
A canister follows me 'round
|
Send me a match with your letter
|
So I can burn the house down
|
|
I guess that I'll see you soon
|
But everything here falls through
|
I hope that I see you soon
|
A warning day
|
You're the story of my life
|
|
Send me a match with your letter
|
A canister follows me 'round
|
Send me a match with your letter
|
So I can burn the house down
|
|
So I can burn the house down [x7]
