The sun came up with no conclusion
It's flowers sleeping in their beds
The cities cometary's humming
I'm wide-awake, it's morning

I have my drugs, I have my woman
They keep away my loneliness
My parents have they have their religion
But sleep in separate houses

         Em                                 Am
I read the body count out of the paper
          F              G               C
And now it's written all over my face
         Em                                 Am
No one ever plans to sleep out in the gutter
         F                         G                                    C
Sometimes that's just the most comfortable place

So I'm drinking, breathing, writing, singing Everyday up on the clock
My mind races with all my longings But cant keep up with what I got

I hope I don't sound too ungrateful  What history gave modern man
The telephone to talk to strangers Machine guns and the camera lens

                   Em                                                    Am
So when you're asked to fight a war that's over nothing
           F                   G                  C
It's best to join the side that's gonna win
                    Em                                  Am
And no one's sure how all of this got started
                F                           G                                        C
But we're gonna make them goddam certain how its gonna end
               C
Oh ya we will, oh ya we will!

Well I could have been a famous singer
If I had someone else's voice
But failure's always sounded better        C C C C
Lets fuck it up boys, make some noise!

The sun came up with no conclusion
It's flowers sleeping in their beds
The cities cometary's humming
I'm wide-awake, it's morning
