Текст песни Night at the Roses

you should see yourself
when will you grow up
every knob you twist on that machine is like a crutch

but i was just the fool
you`ve been waiting for
who says we can`t touch
ourselves to keep from getting bored?
nothing else is touching that`s for sure

a ring around the roses

i will watch you play
i come here every night
it`s just me the bartender the waitress and the lights
shining on you not getting it right
we clap not for you but for your kind

a ring around the roses
everybody poses
threats and then backs down
the second you put clothes on

a ring around the roses
everybody knows it
i will sing your fears
if you sing my neurosis

you should back out now
not a night too soon
i`lll still be here when the last poor soul has left the room
standing round just like a good friend should
smiling as if your songs were good

a ring around the roses
everybody poses
threats and then backs down
the second you get clothes on

a ring around the roses
everybody knows it
i will sing your fears
if you sing my neurosis

and i sat there for hours
waiting on the curb
thinking you might like a flower from a pretty girl
a ring around the waitress from the verse
a ring of fire around the roses door
put it on before you lose your nerve
put your hands together and thеy`ll hurt
(repeats five times)
make your sound that no one`s ever heard
(repeats twice)
and i hope we get what we deserve
