Intro
Verse
I`m looking at another day to find that I`ve got nothing to say
Or I`m looking for another way to process what happened on that birthday
And either way, if you`re gonna call it art, then there`s a cup in front of you
And right away, if you`re gonna play your part, you must drink it down
Verse
But mine eyes have seen the glory of the fields of flowers and factory floors
And my mind`s content to lie at rest for hours behind my loved one`s doors
And if there`s a war, another shitty war to fight for Babylon
Then it`s the perfect storm in a tea cup, but you must drink it down
Chorus
And what do you make of nights when you thought you`d make much more
Than being too tired to turn the lights out and too drunk to drink more?
And what does it take to not hear the cynics at your door
Saying its time to turn the lights out, and you`ll want to keep it down?
Solo
Verse
So I`m lifting up that poison cup to drink a draught of propaganda
Or I`m giving up that other stuff in hopes that it`ll make me madder
And either way, if you`re gonna call it art, then there`s a cup in front of you
And right away, if you`re gonna play your part, you must drink it down
Chorus
And what do you make of nights when you thought you`d make much more
Than being too tired to turn the lights out and too drunk to drink more?
And what does it take to not hear the cynics at your door
Saying it`s time to turn the lights out, and you`ll want to keep it down?
Repeat Intro
Chorus
And what do you make of nights when you thought you`d make much more
Than being too tired to turn the lights out and too drunk to drink more?
And what does it take to not hear the cynics at your door
Saying it`s time to turn the lights out, and you`ll want to keep it
And what does it say of all the things you`ve said before
When you`re too drunk to turn the lights out and too tired to drink more?
And what do you save? And what does it feel like to be saved?
And can you ``pull 2-3-4, pull 2-3-4,`` can you drink it down?
