Verse

All the boys who called their mothers on that day

We know, tough bunch, but they had the nerves, to go and say

 That all your secrets were drowned

 With the pioneers who were flooded from this town

 They packed their bags only moments to late

 With the pounding waves crashing up against the weakened water gates

Chorus

'Cause dire times, call for dire faces

 So lovely dancer, call and answer

 Trading places in the night

 We're running barefoot, you and I

Dead lovers salivate

Broken hearts tessellate

Verse 2

And all the kids who cut their knees on that old school yard fence

Were holding out for prosperity in self defence

PRE CHORUS 2

We beat them down again

There’s no fun playing cowboys for pretend

We showed them what the backs of our hands are for

 The divide is clear in the coming year the rich will take the poor

Chorus

'Cause dire times, call for dire faces

 So lovely dancer, call and answer

 Trading places in the night

 We're running barefoot, you and I

Dead lovers salivate

Broken hearts tessellate

 END ON
