Hold your fire I'm coming out and I'll tell you the truth I was trying to raise my roof Did you see it That I needed to prove That my stinger always stays You said she's beautiful when she plays Did I hit you in the proper place
Suddenly
I, oh well I could live in this town Five cold years before I Yes I could live in this town Before I head for home
It's my turn With the spotlight burning a hole But my bird-heart's turning cold As the temperature rises all around To the sound of a ticking bomb And then it's not just showing off here You know there's something going on here Going on here
Suddenly
I, oh well I could live in this town Five cold years before I Yes I could live in this town Five cold years Yes I could live in this town Five cold years before I Well I could live in this town Before I head for home
And considered it odd That I ever stayed
You know that feeling you get when you don't want to leave
That feeling when you don't want to leave
I, oh well I could live in this town Five cold years before I Yes I could live in this town Five cold years Yes I could live in this town Five cold years before I Well I could live in this town Before I head for home
