If anyone rises at 6.31 
And fakes all day that 
They're having their fun 
They never did get it right 
Since they got it so low 

To anyone drinking the morning away 
The afternoon will prove a mistake 
They never will get it right 
Now they've got it so low 

And we laugh and we drink 
And we teach ourselves not to think 
(and we find it hard not to think) 
We never did get it right 
Since we got it so low 

To all the faces that 
Freeze for you there 
In your memory when you try not to care 
They never disappear down the slow road 

For all of those people 
Who bleed by the side 
And split from their tongues 
And sharpen their knives 
They never will get a life now 
They've got it so low 

Repeat [bad word] 

Cornfields and pig-tails and 
Fish in the stream 
The night that the boys stole 
billion dollar dream 
From the high jinx school 
For girls down the road 

Stories are smoke trails 
And some may be [bad word] 
You're listening to me 
But I'm talking to you 
I hope you never fall from grace 
If you get it so low 

Repeat [bad word] (x2)
