Hey living thing, buy me a drink
And drive me out to the airport
Give me two hundred dollars and say
The best thing anyone's ever said
If you steal every word from your grandmothers' purse
And lay them out on the dashboard
We'll be fine...
Hey living thing, if you're turning in
I'll wake you when something changes
Then I'll ring all the bells again
And you'll spill champagne in my shoes
We'll make rose-coloured smoke from bad horoscopes,
Confetti from news pages
And you'll be mine...
The same heart attack
Will keep feeding back
Right under the streets
Skipping every other beat
So hey living thing, let me in
To the world you're living in
Hey living thing, you've waited for it
From billions counting backwards
Like a dog on a fire escape
Like a bird in a basement
Now release your breath form it's paper bag
And no matter what you hear,
If green lights come raining down tonight
It means tomorrow's another year...
And the same heart attack
Will keep feeding back
Right under the streets
Skipping every other beat
Hey living thing, you're breathing again
You're breathing again...
