Staring into the intersection |
|
she thinks that she can fly and she might |
|
holding on in a new direction |
|
she's gonna try it tonight |
|
the closer i get to feeling |
|
the further that i'm feeling from alright |
|
the more i step into the sun |
|
the more i step out of the light |
|
Jessica is covered in a blanket |
|
on a sunday porch |
|
thinking on the weekends |
|
she would party in the city |
|
she doesn't have a flame |
|
she'd prefer to burn out |
|
like a torch |
|
If she gets nowhere in life |
|
At least she knows she's pretty |
|
She says |
|
Hey Now The Straw dog's out in the street |
|
Hey now there's chemicals in the clouds |
|
Hey now they're calling all the police |
|
But they wont get to us anyhow |
|
The moon is shining now |
|
And shadows are what's left of all the noise |
|
simple silhouettes and cut outs |
|
As if we had a choice |
|
he listens closely now |
|
swears that he can hear a voice |
|
that's calling him |
|
and saying |
|
Hey now the straw dog's out in the street |
|
Hey now there's chemicals in the clouds |
|
Hey now there calling all the police |
|
but they wont get to us anyhow... No |
|
What does it take to be a super hero in my world |
|
make no mistake that these villains always get the girl |
|
we can escape and then we'd skate away from all of this |
|
but no one ever does |
|
She's saying |
|
Hey now the straw dog's out in the street |
|
hey now there's chemicals in the clouds |
|
hey now they're calling all the police |
|
but they wont get to us |
|
No they'll never get to us |
|
hey now the straw dog's out in the street |
|
hey now there's chemicals in the clouds |
|
they're calling all the police |
|
but they wont get to us |
|
na na na na na na na na now |
