Kids In Glass Houses Album

Gentlemen, I found a spokesman for a generation on the fence,
I swear to God, but all I get is her trainee assistant,
Far and distant,
So many bodies on the street tonight,
And we're not leaving here without a fight.

Don't tell me I don't know, what its like to be alone,
Don't tell me I don't know..

Little girl, you've been spreading lies,
Around this town like no one's business,
Little boy, you've been counting down my fifteen minutes,
I've been singing,
So many hobbies broke my back tonight,
And we're not leaving here without a fight.

Don't tell me I don't know, what its like to be alone,
Don't tell me I don't know,
Don't tell me I don't know, how to run this fashion show.

Leaderboard, who's keeping score?
you've got it all but you want more
put your money where your mouth is
money where your mouth is
pretty boy, who's keeping score?
you've got it all and you want more

when i said goodbye to you
i didnt think that we'd make it through
put your money where your mouth is
money where your mouth is
when i open up to you
you only tell me that you like the view

DO DO DO...
DO YOU KNOW WHERE TO GO IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY?

eloquent and self assured
an artist's grasp of insecure
you put your money where your mouth is
money where your mouth is
i'm getting bored, i'm getting bored
of talking straight into the wall

when i said goodbye to you
i didnt think that we'd make it through
put your money where your mouth is
money where your mouth is
when i open up to you
you only tell me that you like the view

DO DO DO...
DO YOU KNOW WHERE TO GO IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY?

We take three steps forward and three steps back,
She says "I don't like the way you're dressed"
So then four words later, she takes four back
She says "I don't like the way you're tryin' your best to impress"
You win.

And I wish I could sleep
But I'm tired, down, dirty in these borrowed sheets
It's been a week
And I've singing til I faint, yeah
But I won't admit defeat til
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
When you come by
For your information
I love my demons
Cause they keep me company, yeah
I've grown to love my new routine
But on my better days
Better days, better days

Consider yourself one of my best friends
Consider yourself one of my enemies
Oh enemies

And I wish I could speak
We spend the last half hour in the back room
Celebrating me
And now I feel a little cheap, yeah
But I won't admit defeat til
Saturday, Saturday, Saturday
And it's not one of my better days
Better days, better days

Consider yourself one of my best friends
Consider yourself one of my enemies
Oh enemies
Show a little skin and make a million
For a little soul and make a million more
A million more

When I grow up, woah
I wanna be famous, woah
And when you grow up, woah
Will you still blame us

And I wish I could see that
But I'm tired, down, dirty in these borrowed sheets
It's been a bitch of a week, yeah

Saturday, saturday, saturday

Consider yourself one of my best friends
Consider yourself one of my enemies
Oh enemies
Show a little skin and make a million
For a little soul and make a million more
Show a little skin and make a million
For a little soul and make a million more

Lovely bones, I never wanna let you go,
I slump low into the hollowest of thrones,
If time heals woe, then I'm counting to a billion, slow,
Me and you I promise that I'll see you through.

Cause you always were a headstrong girl,
And all you wanted was the whole damn world.
You were a headstrong girl,
And all you wanted was the whole damn world.

Lovely bones, they tell you what you need to know,
When in Rome, you do exactly what you're told,
'Cause God won't show, so you're counting to a billion, slow,
I dare you to promise something you can do.

Cause you always were a headstrong girl,
And all you wanted was the whole damn world.
You were a headstrong girl,
And all you wanted was the whole damn world,
You need a holiday, holiday, holiday baby,
And I'll shake your bones, show you things that you've never seen.

I dare you to sail a little closer to home.

Cause you always were a headstrong girl,
And all you wanted was the whole damn world.
You were a headstrong girl,
And all you wanted was the whole damn world,
You need a holiday, holiday, holiday baby,
And I'll shake your bones, show you things that you've never seen.

As you crawl on all fours
A dirty mouth licks clean the floor
You were lighting them up and stomping them out
That little black book is full of these red faces you've pulled
Painting it down and dragging it down,
She's got, she's got so many vices,
She dies ten times a night.

I can do shameless, too
And this one goes out to you.
I can do shameless, too
They waited all night for you.

When she drinks, she drinks neat
When she thinks, it's on her feet
"I'm just sinning, do you mind?
I'm falling behind"
So she's bleached all that hair
And hit the stage in underwear
The parents get blamed
It's always the same
She's got, she's got so many vices
She dies ten times a night
She's got, she's got so many vices
She dies ten times a night

I can do shameless, too
And this one goes out to you.
I can do shameless, too
They waited all night for you.

They waited all
They waited all
They waited all night for you
They waited all
They waited all
They waited all night for you

It's going simply shamelessly
And she'll conduct the symphony
A soundtrack to her infamy
If this is the revolution then pardon me
I'm leaving, I'm leaving, I'm leaving tonight

I can do shameless, too
And this one goes out to you.
I can do shameless, too
They waited all night for you.

She's got, she's got so many vices
She's got, she's got so many vices
She dies ten times a night.

You order margaritas for your friends
In the trendy bars at the world's end
I can see death there consoling old girlfriends
Says there's a guest list place down in heaven

It's a familiar feeling
I'm high as the ceiling
And I'm never ever coming down

Those dirty girls, girls
Are gonna steal your heart away
Their naughty words, words
That take the devils breath away
Inside your world, world
Like plastic Californ-i-a
Those dirty girls, girls
Are gonna have their wicked way
With you

You put the fun back into the funeral
You've got your head, back, feet on the table
You speak the strangest tongues with your close friends
To decorate the walls of your weekend

And when you've got them kneeling
They look less appealing
But you're never ever coming down

Those dirty girls, girls
Are gonna steal your heart away
Their naughty words, words
That take the devils breath away
Inside your world, world
Like plastic Californ-i-a
Those dirty girls, girls
Are gonna have their wicked way
With you

With you
I guess it's just something
For boys don't like to
Talk, talk, talk about

Those dirty girls, girls
Are gonna steal your heart away
Their naughty words, words
That take the devils breath away
Inside your world, world
Like plastic Californ-i-a
Those dirty girls, girls
Are gonna have their wicked way
With you

Burn the liars
Everybody knows this world is crazy
Start a fire
It's getting hot inside your head tonight, alright
Sugar on your lips
They put the lemon on your tongue
Then put the price up on the drinks you sip
And named the short ones after guns

They tried to upstage us
Ee walk like we're famous
I've made some of my best mistakes
Inside your shoes
If you surrender
You'll only offend her
Don't need to see the things I've been told she can do, she can do

Learn your lines
Before somebody says you're getting lazy
Friends for hire
It's hot as hell in the desert tonight, alright
Lipstick on your chest
They put the poison in your glass
They put the price upon the head you gave
And took the rest, no need to ask

they tried to upstage us
We walk like we're famous
I've made some of my best mistakes
Inside your shoes
If you surrender
You'll only offend her
Don't need to see the things I've been told she can do,she can do

Play D.E.A.D. - It's easy(8x)

They tried to upstage us
We walk like we're famous
I've made some of my best mistakes inside your shoes
They tried to upstage us
We walk like we're famous
Is that honestly the best that you can do?

Take a seat, I'll tell you how I'm feeling
Take a seat, I'll break that little heart
Make a scene and bite the hand that's feeding
It takes an end to know just where to start

The story goes
That I never learned to listen right
But I know that the only pleasure here was mine

So we dance all night
Yeah we'll be free before the morning light
Singing, I wanna know, I wanna know, know it all

Take a seat, cause now the blind are leading
Take a seat, cause now we're in the dark
Promises from you are not worth believing
If people have their price you're a la carte

The story goes
That you were never gonna treat me right
But I know that the only pleasure here was mine

So we dance all night
Yeah we'll be free before the morning light
Singing, I wanna know, I wanna know,know it all

Yeah we dance all night
Yeah we'll be free before the morning light
Singing, I wanna know, I wanna know, know it all

The story goes
That you were never gonna treat me right
But I know that the only pleasure here was mine

Dance all night
Yeah we'll be free before the morning light
Singing, I wanna know, I wanna know, know it all

Take a seat, I'll tell you how I'm feeling
Take a seat, I'll break that little heart
Take a seat, cause now the blind are leading
They take us from the end back to the start

Well you can bark all night
But you're never gonna bite
So I don't care
Because it's dark and light
And their fighting for the right
To choose your heir
Well you can swing your arms
You cam work your charms
But not on me
You can scream and shout
That your fires burning out
So don't blow air

Swimming in a sea that's never been this close to me, yeah

You've got a lot to answer for
I've got a couple of questions more
Cause you know I'm right
Most the time

You can bear a cross
You can tick a box
It's just a square
With your knuckles grazed
It's the way you raise your families here

A slicker for the sun and how the summer's got a gun, yeah

You've got a lot to answer for
I've got a couple of questions more
Cause you know I'm right
Most the time

Burn the books that you've adorned
With words you stole from fools before you
And those words they write
A'int too bright
And those words you write
Keep me up all night

All night

You've got a lot to answer for
I've got a couple of questions more
Cause you know I'm right
Most the time

So don't worry they tell me hell's an ok place to be
this time of year
so don't worry they tell me hell's the hippest place to be
and i'm dying gradually to get there
while you're trying desperately to stay here
as you glance around the room
to check that no one sees how normal you are

perfect examples of everything good young people should be

well i see the way you read your newspaper
and the way its rested on your lap
and the pages that you hold your finger between
as you glance around the room
to check that no one sees how normal you are

perfect examples of everything good young people should be

as you glance around the room
to check that no one sees how normal you are

perfect examples of everything good young people should be

Na Na Na Na Na...

Every day I wake up
My pillows made up
I'm tired of always following you around
You're such a faker
And when you meet your maker
I know he's gonna beat you down to the ground

Do you remember me at all?
I can't help feeling like I'm talking to the wall
Do you remember me at all?
Cause they've got my picture up in all my family's halls

So we don't see eye to eye anymore
And no we don't see wrong from right like before
No we don't see eye to eye anymore
And no we don't see wrong from right like before

Na Na Na Na

The movers and the shakers
That fill those papers
I'm tired of always following them around
You're a heartbreaker
An undertaker
I know you're going to place me into the ground

Do you remember me at all?
I can't help feeling like I'm talking to the wall
Do you remember me at all?
Cause they've got my picture up in all my family's halls

So we don't see eye to eye anymore
and no we don't see wrong from right like before
No we don't see eye to eye anymore
And no we don't see wrong from right like before

Like Before
Like Before

Na Na Na Na

So we don't see eye to eye anymore
and no we don't see wrong from right like before
No we don't see eye to eye anymore
And no we don't see wrong from right like before

Na Na Na Na Na
