Long Night |
3 on a fever, down in the dumps |
The 1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumps |
The 3rd writes a letter to his family |
Says I’d kill everyone if it was up to me |
Early in the bathroom, looking for a drain |
Passing at the misery, just to ease the pain |
Scared at the turbid, looking for a light |
Anything at all to get through the long night |
Long night, long night |
Well everybody’s got the fever and relief is not in sight |
Long night, long night |
Lord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite |
Up against the window and up against the wall |
And up against religion and up against it all |
No place to run to and no place to hide |
You know the night will fall and you will crawl inside |
Well I get up in the morning, it’s the same old news |
Somebody’s been wearing someone else’s shoes |
I cripple to his crutches, I’m off to the light |
Well one and all, we run from the long night |
Long night, long night |
Well everybody’s got the fever and relief is not in sight |
Long night, long night |
Lord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite |
I don’t wanna do that jive |
Too late… it’s too late |
3 on a fever, down in the dumps |
The 1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumps |
The 3rd writes a letter to his family |
I said I’d kill everyone if it was up to me |
Long night, long night |
Well everybody’s got the fever and relief is not in sight |
Long night, long night |
Lord the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite |
