setting as the day begins
The moon is soaking up the light
Don't think about the world,
just dream about the world to come
Deep in the pocket of the night
Change rattles, rumbles and it bites
Nothing is free, everyone is gone
Just someone on the street
It's all a game now, baby
you know it's waiting out there somewhere
Kiss the sky and walk away
Poets and politicians out to lunch
Nobody wants to save the world
another love song for the underfed
Wearing their crooked little smiles
Invisible tears falling from your eyes
And someone on the street
It's all a game now, baby
you know it's waiting up there somewhere
Kiss the sky and walk away with
under every traffic light
We can watch them float away,
The politicians all have parachutes
And all the poets carry guns
Street corner singer gets run down
Wearing their crooked little smiles
All your pocket change is gone and there's
a new guy on the street corner singing
It's all a game now, baby
you know it's waiting up there somewhere
Kiss the sky and walk away
Tomorrow we can watch them
