JOE WOOD lyrics : "Days Of Dancing"
The skinny kid's behind the jock
The hands forever feeling slick
The morning always makes you sick
-
A waiting snort beside your nose
A drunken fort inside black clothes
A mixed up nut inside a queen
A vixen !@#% who has a dream
-
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing.
-
Before the glaring eyes will flash
Before the fairy maiden's lash
Before the tearing of the dress
Before you swallow emptiness
-
On Tuesday last the plumber cried
On Wednesday half the summer died
On Thursday Tommy knelt in pain
On Friday Tommy went insane
-
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing.
-
Take brandy for your medicine
Take candy for your insulin
Take hand me downs for ripping seams
Take diamond rings for broken dreams
-
Some final words before the hour
Some final sex before the shower
Some final checks before you try
Some final food before you die
-
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing.
-
Almost a cartoon with a smile
Almost some fortune for awhile
Almost the ending lonely pier
Almost the only one who's here
-
As shadows come under the jump
As hatchets hack into the stump
As panic from the sudden stall
As calm before the mountains fall
-
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing.
-
Your blaring scars beside your bed
Your music still inside your head
Your acne trapped inside your pore
Your pen is bleeding on the floor
-
No funeral for the dying bird
No writing of the saving word
No money for a wooden box
No places for the ugly rocks
-
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing.
-
Why sidewalks blow inside the town
Why bricks are slowly breaking down
Why leaning lovers learn to hide
Why all the busy grownups lied
-
On waterfronts the sunlight shines
On highways there between the lines
On softly talking sacred ground
On beds of water where we drowned
-
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing
The day is for dancing.
