everything is exactly right
when i walk around here drunk every night
with an open container from 7-11
in st. ides heaven
i've been out haunting the neighborhood
and everybody can see i'm no good
when i'm walking out between parked cars
with my head full of stars
high on amphetamines
the moon is a lightbulb breaking
it'll go around with anyone
but it won't come down for anyone
you think you know what brings me down
that i want those things you could never allow
you see me smiling you think it's a frown
turned upside down
cos everyone is a fucking pro
and they all got answers from trouble they've known
and they all got to say what you should and shouldn't do
though they don't have a clue
high on amphetamines
the moon is a lightbulb breaking
it'll go around with anyone
but it won't come down for anyone
and i won't come down for anyoneGood night New Orleans
Things are exactly as they seem
But I'm nowhere around
Hello Mexico
You're where I was told to go
If I don't want to be found
There's no end to the winter
Waking at the break of dawn
In the middle of summer
Living at the speed of light
Someday we may
See each other and look the other way
But I'll love you just the same
And if you hate your life
Just remember there used to be a time
When we could not feel a thing
In my heart is a hunger
I will never give away
Just try and stop from going under
'Till the dawn of judgment day
Living at the speed of light
Living at the speed of light
Living at the speed of light
And burning your love on the way
Burning your love away
