War On Drugs (Live 5/01/04 Glasgow) - Barenaked Ladies[00:00:00]
She likes to sleep with the radio on[00:02:06]
So she can dream of her favorite song[00:02:11]
The one that no one has ever sung since she was small[00:02:16]
She'll never know that she made it up[00:02:25]
She had a soul and we ate it up[00:02:30]
Thrown away like a paper cup[00:02:35]
The music falls[00:02:39]
The only flaw in her detailed plan[00:02:45]
Is where she wins back the love of her man[00:02:50]
Everyone knows that he's never coming back[00:02:54]
He took her heart and she took his name[00:03:04]
He couldn't stand taking all the blame[00:03:09]
He left her only with guilt and shame and then she cracked[00:03:14]
Won't it be dull when we rid ourselves[00:03:23]
Of all these demons haunting us[00:03:29]
To keep us company[00:03:35]
In the dream I refuse to have[00:03:43]
She falls asleep in a lukewarm bath[00:03:48]
We're left to deal with the aftermath again[00:03:53]
On behalf of humanity[00:04:02]
I will fight for your sanity[00:04:07]
How profound such profanity can be[00:04:12]
Won't it be dull when we rid ourselves[00:04:22]
Of all these demons haunting us[00:04:28]
To keep us company[00:04:33]
Won't it be odd to be happy like we[00:04:41]
Always thought we're supposed to feel[00:04:48]
But never seem to be[00:04:52]
Near where I live there's a viaduct[00:05:00]
Where people jump when they're out of luck[00:05:05]
Raining down on the cars and trucks below[00:05:10]
They've put a net there to catch their fall[00:05:20]
Like it'll stop anyone at all[00:05:25]
What they don't know is when nature calls you go[00:05:29]
They say that Jesus and mental health[00:05:39]
Are just for those who can help themselves[00:05:44]
But what good is that when you live in hell on earth[00:05:48]
From the very fear that makes you want to die[00:05:58]
Is just the same as what keeps you alive[00:06:03]
It's way more trouble than some suicide is worth[00:06:08]
Won't it be dull when we rid ourselves[00:06:18]
Of all these demons haunting us[00:06:24]
To keep us company[00:06:29]
Won't it be odd to be happy like we[00:06:37]
Always thought we're supposed to feel[00:06:44]
But never seem to be[00:06:49]
Hard to admit I fought the war on drugs[00:06:57]
My hands were tied and the phone was bugged[00:07:02]
Another died and the world just shrugged it off[00:07:07]
