Toss it round and get on through
 
 I see another hand shake I'm looking straight at you
 
 Bang the walls and sit on it tight
 
 We're cooking down here and we're working tonight
 
 'cause I got something on my shoulder
 
 and it looks real neat
 
 Living in this shelter or living on the street
 
 And the magazines and plastic shirts
 
 Don't comfort you where it still hurts
 
 The razor blades come out at night
 
 But I can't critisize, I won't love & live a lie
 
 I won't love & live a lie, I won't love & live a lie
 
  
  Toss it round like a salad in a bowl
 
 I'm thinking about what might have been said 
 
 And it leaves me cold
 
 I can live and I can certainly die
 
 The unfinished symphony and the amplified lies
 
 'cause I got a friend that can listen
 
 Otherwise we could be
 
 Wednesday cold this morning but it don't seem free
 
 And the magazines and plastic shirts
 
 Don't comfort you where it still hurts
 
 The razor blades come out at night
 
 But I won't run and hide, I won't love & live a lie
  
 
 I can give and I certainly take
 
 My whole life has been a testament to that cake
 
 Then it gets eaten, and we fall down flat
 
 Another time, another place, no looking back
 
 You got something that you wanna
 
 Get right off your chest
 
 Then it moves so quiet now
 
 Oh gee, what a mess
 
 And the magazines and plastic shirts
 
 Don't comfort you where it still hurts
 
 The razor blades come out at night
 
 And I can't sit here quiet, I won't love & live a lie
 
 I can't sit here tonight, I won't love and live a lie
