| Sometimes when you get mystic
|
| I have to leave the room
|
| Another accident statistic
|
| While the big bass drum goes boom
|
| There’s an apocalypse now on Station Road
|
| If there’s a nuclear winter, at least it’ll snow
|
| Your talk turns all of me upside down
|
| You turned up my ticket at the lost and found
|
| And all I got was the current crown worn by
|
| Cathy’s New Clown
|
| Our enemies are at the border
|
| We couldn’t go back too soon
|
| Be a nice girl and don’t take orders
|
| That’s what they’re saying in the back room
|
| You got a big black box that I can’t get a look in
|
| And I wanna look at you but I don’t get a look in
|
| I’m like a talking head with the sound turned down
|
| Or Pavlov’s dog when he wasn’t around
|
| I’m just a little bit lost so I’m heading downtown to be
|
| Cathy’s New Clown
|
| One upon a time
|
| I didn’t know you
|
| That’s the way the story goes
|
| But how I wish, how I wish you’d let me show you
|
| That I love the lines but hate the clothes
|
| That’s the way it goes
|
| Turn the speakers up to ten now
|
| Listen to what he has to say
|
| Watch out there’s a body talking body-talk
|
| A big mouth just gets in the way, hey
|
| When I’m with you, there’s something to it
|
| You know the old lie and you can see through it
|
| But now I’m alone and I’m homeward bound
|
| Cover my tracks up and cover new ground
|
| Put down the purse cos I’m buying this round
|
| I’m putting pepper down for the pack of bloodhounds
|
| And all I need is a single sound, I’ll be
|
| Cathy’s New Clown
|
| Here he comes… |
