|
It's five o'clock
|
|
In the afternoon
|
|
Somebody's playing
|
|
A sixties tune on the radio
|
|
A lazy wind tumbles
|
|
Down the street
|
|
It shakes the dust up
|
|
With the summer heat
|
|
Where the people go...
|
|
In fancy town
|
|
Where nothing's real
|
|
They don't consider
|
|
What you feel
|
|
In fancy town
|
|
It's black & white
|
|
They close their minds
|
|
They say
|
|
Wrong is right
|
|
How long
|
|
Will your love
|
|
Hold on
|
|
To stay strong enough
|
|
In fancy town
|
|
The attitude
|
|
Could strip you bare
|
|
Like frozen food
|
|
A ship of fools
|
|
In a crazy choir
|
|
Is gonna take you home
|
|
And light your fire
|
|
In fancy town
|
|
Where nothing's real
|
|
They don't consider
|
|
What you feel
|
|
In fancy town
|
|
It's black & white
|
|
They close their minds
|
|
They say
|
|
Wrong is right
|
|
How long
|
|
Will your love
|
|
Hold on
|
|
To stay strong enough
|
|
A deck of cards
|
|
In perfect black
|
|
Like cold cement
|
|
On the pavement cracks
|
|
Where lovers steal
|
|
And beg for time
|
|
And doctors sign
|
|
On the dotted line...
|
|

How Long?
