            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 
 There was a face on a hoarding that someone had drawn on 
And just enough time for the night to pass by without warning 
Away in the distance there's a blue flashing light 
Someone's in trouble somewhere tonight 
As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse 
The wind blows away all of yesterday's news 
Well they've locked up their daughters and they battened the hatches 
They always could find us but they never could catch us 
Through the grease streaked windows of an all night cafe 
We watched the arrested get taken away 
And that cigarette haze has ecology beat 
As the whores and the drunks filed in from the street 
'cause the steams in the boiler the coals in the fire 
If you ask how I am then I'll just say inspired 
If the thorn of a rose is the thorn in your side 
Then you're better off dead if you haven't yet died
