idk i was bored [00:00] Birds Don't Sing She said, "How could you joke at a time like this?" I know why, because this is what you wanted all along now, isn't it? I think that all you ever really ever wanted was a reason to complain That never stopped you before, don't let it get in your way Those are her words, not mine As far as I'm concerned, we could've had a good time, so If you walk out that door in disgust I guess there's nothing more to discuss Birds don't sing, they just fall from the sky Girls don't call, and they never tell you why That's just how they say goodbye Goodbye Don't listen to my music, don't lie in my bed Don't listen to the references To things you might have actually said 'Cause those are my words, not yours As far as I'm concerned, it could've been a lot worse I wasn't trying to avoid the confrontation She isn't crying, she's just making conversation Birds don't sing, they just fall from the sky Girls don't call, and they never tell you why That's just how they say goodbye Goodbye [03:29] Lovers Rock Are you sick of me? Would you like to be? I'm trying to tell you something Something that I already said You like a pretty boy With a pretty voice Who is trying to sell you something Something that you already have But if you're too drunk to drive And the music is right She might let you stay But just for the night And if she grabs for your hand And drags you along She might want a kiss Before the end of this song Because love can burn like a cigarette And leave you alone with nothing And leave you alone with nothing While the others talk We were listening to lovers rock In her bedroom In her bedroom And if you start to kiss And the record skips Flip it over And sit a little closer But if you're too drunk to drive And the music is right She might let you stay But just for the night And if she grabs for your hand And drags you along She might want a kiss Before the end of this song Because love can burn like a cigarette And leave you alone with nothing And leave you alone with nothing Do-do, do-do-do-do-do Do-do, do-do-do-do-do Do-do, do-do-do-do-do Do-do, do-do-do-do-do Because love can burn like a cigarette And leave you alone with nothing And leave you alone with nothing [07:03] Hate Yourself You You'd fall in love with anyone I'd think you'd fall in love with anyone Who fell in love with you And they frequently do So take comfort Cruel comfort Before you start to wonder How you got locked inside your room And how long will it... Take? Before you start to hate yourself And go straight To the arms of someone else And I'll just Wait 'Till those arms belong to me and I'm not Saying that you love me I'm not saying any... Thing Tell me Do you let them down, gently? Does it only make it harder? To let the feeling linger To drag it out a little longer Does it put your mind at ease? But you're the one who brought 'em here You're the one who has to take them when you leave And how long will it... Take? Before you start to hate yourself And go Straight to the arms of someone else And I'll just Wait 'Till those arms belong to me And I'm not saying that you love me I'm not saying any... Thing And how long will it... Take? Before you start to hate yourself And go... Straight to the arms of someone else And I'll just... Wait 'Till those arms belong to me And I'm not Saying that you love me I'm not saying any... [10:37] Pantyhose Boys march into war To serve and defeat They were younger than me Guns poke through the trees Death on a limb They were aiming at him And when the bullets came, he didn't duck He wrapped her pantyhose around his neck And he could feel the magic work Keeping him from harm Away to someplace mystical and warm His lucky charm Then he got caught No cover at all He breathed in her scent Not even a scratch He didn't die When he stepped on a mine They were violet and soft It didn't go off And when her letter came, he didn't cry He wrapped her pantyhose around his eyes And he could feel the magic work Keeping him from harm Even though she didn't love him anymore Can't kill that lucky charm [13:34] Cigarettes out the Window My girl Liddy used to always smoke Cigarettes when she couldn't sleep She'd disappear for an hour and a half And when she'd come back she'd brush her teeth But I could still smell it on her raggedy tee And I could taste it on her lips when we kiss Poor little Liddy used to always quit But she never really quit She'd just say she did Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) My girl Liddy used to always smoke Cigarettes when she couldn't sleep I wonder what she did when she got done I guess she'd just flick them out in the street Poor little Liddy, she wishes it was dark But it's never really dark in L.A. The light from the billboard always shines But it changed twelve times since you went away Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) Cigarettes, cigarettes out the window (oh-oh) We'll find moonlit nights strangely empty Because when you call my name through them There will be no answer Rather melodramatic, aren't you? We'll find moonlit nights strangely empty Because when you call my name through them There will be no answer You mind if I smoke? We'll find moonlit nights strangely empty Because when you call my name through them There will be no answer I always smoke in the theater We'll find moonlit nights strangely empty Because when you call my name through them There'll be no answer Somehow it enhances the performance [16:53] The Getaway Well, this thing that we had built Was flaying into shreds It was short and it was dry Like the hair on a shrunken head And all the king's men spread the pieces on the floor By the time they fit together, we had forgotten what they were for Pretending like she's beautiful in the pictures I can see But she only picks the good ones That's more than I can say for me But that's the way it always starts Feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts Always making out like bandits 'Til you get away and it falls apart It falls apart You're always dressed up like a priest You're always drilling through the wall Cracking the safe and skipping town While poor Rosemary takes the fall You're always looking for the future Rinsing out the dye Looking for a moral to the story That sounded good and happened to rhyme Rosemary on the gallows Dressed like nothing's wrong No funeral, no flowers For an outlaw in a song But that's the way it always goes Feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts Always making out like bandits 'Til you get away and it falls apart It falls apart But that's the way it always goes Feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts Always making out like bandits 'Til you get away and it falls apart It falls apart That's the way it always goes (that's the way it always goes) That's the way it always goes (that's the way it always goes) That's the way it always goes (that's the way it always goes) Feel like Lily and the Jack of Hearts
