Lyrics

[Verse 1] The skirts go up before the war Among the madding crowds They're ruined, like the rest of us, ruined Rest of us, ruined You are a living doll riding the circle tracks Behind the walls of clocks And you're ruined, like the rest of us, ruined Rest of us, ruined [Chorus 1] Traffic was slow for the crash years There's no other show like it 'round here As a rule Windows were rolled for the crash years There's no other show like it 'round here As a rule [Verse 2] Light a candle's end, you are a light turned low And like the rest of us You got those old eternity blues Eternity blues Your fingers raised, you're looking for the word What you want is 'accident' Another drab spectacular view Of what you can lose [Chorus 2] Traffic was slow for the crash years There's no other show like it 'round here As a rule Windows were closed in the crash years Honey child, you're not safe here As a rule [Instrumental break] [Chorus 1] Traffic was slow for the crash years There's no other show like it 'round here As a rule Windows were rolled for the crash years There's no other show like it 'round here As a rule [Outro] The ruins were wild The ruins were wild Tonight will be an open mic The ruins were wild The ruins were wild Tonight will be an open mic The ruins were wild The ruins were wild Tonight will be an open mic The ruins were wild The ruins were wild Tonight will be an open mic The ruins were wild The ruins were wild Tonight will be an open mic
