number one
I looked up and all I could see was mist Who needs coasts when you're perfectly adrift I've got a friend who knows just how it is We walked a while and watched the sun arrive Drinking and plannin', hey, you know any time You wanna sing, I'm here, just like tonight Golden storm, put that hurricane away I wasn't flattered when you named it after me I want to lay down almost constantly, 'cause I know Just how to look the other way It was so much easier yesterday When the door was open and We're just running far Come on, let's close it and I'll call you number one, number one Number one, number one You're reading books about how it all should work Written by men who've never seen the world Or a garden coming to color in that northwest town Where the streets are overrun Punk rock kids do what they've always done Time can stop; I was the lucky one Blue blood runs out into the street T v Shows rewarding treachery I'm watching now and I will be the same time, next week Just to learn how to look away I want to understand yesterday When the door was open and We're just running far Come on, let's close it and I'll call you number one, number one Number one, number one Don't let him run the race Come out of your hiding place I look into your eyes but don't know how they work Desire is power, and trust is just a word Remember when we met, I was young and you were hurt Maybe we should talk about what's at stake You don't have to feel like shit and say it's o k Or pretend to be asleep while you're dreaming of being awake
