Farah, now that you're here, can you tell me 
Exactly how I should have done 
Farah, drives with her eyes closed 
Do you ever inflict unwanted memories 

I know you and I know it won't take you long 
To make me smile 
Farah, angelic girl I'll have 
You know it's you and me potentially 

Farah, don't pull the carpet from under me 
Indifference is killing me 
Am I wry? Oh my! Fallacy! 
Fallacy in my words am I wry 

I know you and I know you're not afraid 
To say the least 
Diamond ring diamond ring 
But you can't find it 

Cold is the night

The sun is shining
We should be making hay
But we're dead from the waist down
Like in Californ-i-a
Victory is empty
There are lessons in defeat
But we're dead from the waist down
We are sleeping on our feet
We stole the songs from birds in trees
Bought us time on easy street
Now our paths, they never meet
We chose to court and flatter greed
Ego-disposability
I caught a glimpse and it's not me
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Or else you're done for
When we're dead from the waist down
There's no contracts binding
No bad scene beyond repair
But when you're dead from the waist down
You're too far gone to even care
We stole the songs from birds in trees
Bought us time on easy street
Now our paths, they never meet
We chose to court and flatter greed
Ego-disposability
I caught a glimpse and it's not me
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Or else we're done for
When you're dead from the waist down
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Make hay not war
Or else we're done for
When you're dead from the waist down
When you're dead from the waist down
Dead from the waist down
Dead from the waist down

These are the things I can do without
Come on

Come on

Shout

Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to shout for joy

Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on

They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale

Shout

And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart

Shout

These are the things I can do without
