long night |
|
3
on a fever, down in the dumps |
the
1st one hollers, the 2nd one jumps |
the
3rd writes a letter to his family |
says
I'd kill everyone if it was up to me |
|
Early
in the bathroom, looking for a drain |
passing
at the misery, just to ease the pain |
Scared
at the turbid, looking for a light |
anything
at all to get through the long night |
|
long
night, long night |
well
everybody's got the fever and relief is not in sight |
long
night, long night |
lord
the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite |
|
up
against the window and up against the wall |
and
up against religion and up against it all |
no
place to run to and no place to hide |
you
know the night will fall and you will crawl inside |
|
well
I get up in the morning, it's the same old news |
Somebody's
been wearing someone else's shoes. |
I
cripple to his crutches, I'm off to the light |
Well
one and all, we run from the long night. |
|
long
night, long night |
Well
everybody's got the fever and relief is not in sight |
long
night, long night |
lord
the darkest hours, please relieve this appetite |
|
I
don't wanna do that jive |
too
late... it's too late |
