Telethon Songtext

von Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton

When I'm on will you leave me on?
When I'm on will you leave me on?
And when I'm down will you let me get under?

Take cover, can't hide without a house
Newspapers blow over
Can't walk past the driveway without asking for direction
So full of stupid questions

When the daylight's like florescent light
I'm gonna take my time night by night
When the daylight's like florescent light
I hang my hands over your eyes to hide

When I'm on will you rescue me?
I watch that telethon
Got hung up on the word, I can't get it over
Soldier

When she says nothing is enough
She doesn't mean, don't try to fix it
Make plans with your other hand
Dream without concession

When the daylight's like florescent light
I'm gonna take my time night by night
When the daylight's like florescent light
I hang my hands over your eyes
I hang my hands over your eyes to hide

Bruised Billy Joel, 'New York State Of Mind'
Bruised Billy Joel, 'New York State Of Mind'
Bruised Billy Joel, 'New York State Of Mind'
Take cover, take pleasure
