No Sir

[Verse 1: Aimee Mann]

There's a shadow in the wings

And you let it tell you things

Yeah, you plant it in the ground

But you don't make a sound

No, sir

[Verse 2: Aimee Mann]

All the helicopters fail

You can feel on them on your trail

You can hear it in his voice

But you don't have a choice

No sir

[Chorus: Aimee Mann & Ted Leo]

Work on your story, sir

Are you worried her mood's gonna waver and change?

Don't blame the world or the girl

For what keeps you estranged

[Verse 3: Ted Leo]

There's a light nobody's seen

In a place you've never been

And it's fluid, where it turns into steam you'll walk through it

Even wading upstream you'll get to it

There's a way and it is known

But you won't make it there alone

No, sir
