Well we had to pull on something So we're grabbing at the threads And now the world's unraveling Inside our very heads Glasses smeared with lipstick Hungry eyes out in the street Same old bodies moving To the same old beat And had to draw the line Had to draw the line All this talk can hypnotize youAnd we can ill afford To give ourselves to sentiment When our time is, oh, so short Names beneath the lichen On these cemetery stones And there are carnivals of silverfish Waiting to dance upon our bones Have to draw the line Have to draw the line Help me draw the line Help me draw the lineI've been doubting yours, baby I've been doubting mine I've been out of circulation Where the sun don't shine I've been doubting fame and wealth Charity, even love itself Draw the line I ain't saying he's bad, baby I ain't saying he's good Merely that he ain't so different Neath his executioner's hood In the name of liberty In the name of brotherhood Have to draw the line Have to draw the line Need to take some pride, baby Need to take some heart Need to take evasive action When the rumpus start Here we are buck-naked, yeah But where should we begin When it's not the flesh we're after But the howlin' ghost within Help me draw the line Help me draw the line Help me draw the line Need to draw the line Help me draw the lineNeed to draw the line Have to draw the line Pack your bags we're going home Pack your bags we're goingHad to draw the line Pack your bags we're going homePack your bags we're goingHad to draw the line Pack your bags we're going home
