d l burdon - christmas lights in august lyrics

Loading...

christmas lights in august, people spitting when they talk
demanding my attention like a teacher throwing chalk
recent accusations and the wingspan of a dove
your clothes still stink from other people spitting from above

masters of the social contract try to take you home
where everything thing you bought is on the cusp of being sold
make them love the pieces of you they left on the floor
not pushing you but sitting back and waiting for a fall

i never even knew there was a line
to cross and you just made me cross it twice
i never even knew there was a line
to cross and you just made me cross it twice
the kings of ‘if’ and “oh, whatever” just declared a war
now calculate the average wage of those who’re bound to fall
maybe all the things they hate keep other people strong
just ordinary people seeking shelter from the storm

i never even knew there was a line
to cross and you just made me cross it twice
i never even knew there was a line
to cross and you just made me cross it twice

this city’s night time skyline looks like rows of broken t++th
kicked out and trampled on by patent leather heels
money flows the wrong way down a one way street
as we sit here cap in hand where need and envy meet

i never even knew there was a line
to cross and you just made me cross it twice
i never even knew there was a line
to cross and you just made me cross it twice

i never even knew that there was a line
i never even knew that there was a line
