The Shirts

Songtekst

I haven't found the formula to measure my distress
The tick tock of my heartclock tells my mind I'm so depressed
I searched behind the mirrors and I broke down all the walls
Is it something rare and new or is it something old?
Is it something old?

My job it takes me everywhere but I ain't seen a thing
At eighty miles an hour rolling hills all seem the same
I've searched the mountians and the streams, but I can't find a clue
Is it something old and worn or is it something new?

I go where I go (I go where I go)
I go where I go, I don't know
It's such a silent world and an empty road
But behind that road is a pot of gold

I woke up from a deep, deep sleep and out the door I went
I didn't bother to turn back, my feet were sore and red
I searched behind the mirrors and I broke down all the walls
Is it something rare and new or is it something old?

I go where I go (I go where I go)
I go where I go, I don't know
It's such a silent world and an empty road

I go where I go (I go where I go)
I go where I go, I don't know
It's such a silent world and an empty road
But behind that road is a pot of gold

I'm sick of greedy people who just want a piece of me
They're all so clever and so bright and modern to a T
You smell them from a mile away but I don't really care
When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)

When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)
When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)
When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)
When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)

When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)
When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)
When it comes down to the facts I laugh and walk away (Laugh and walk away)
