A Place In The Rain
Lyricist:Joe Jackson
Turn off the TV and turn off the light Turn off the street lamps as well Turn off the billboards that scream through the night And dream the policemen to hell
Close all the windows and close all the doors Close all the shutters and blinds Close down the churches and pray to the whores Lay down and then close your eyes
It's amazing what comes into view As we're finally breakin' the chains When the temperature rises We'll go to our place in the rain
Take down the pictures and take out the trash Take up the tattered old rugs Take up the mattress and count all the cash And laugh with the last of the drugs
Burn all the papers and burn all the wood Burn what we can't understand Run up a flag for the old neighborhood Sit back and then take my hand
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 'Cause it's amazing what lovers can do With just a kiss and a glass of champagne When the rivers run dry We can go to our place in the rain
Pay off the piper and pay all the bills Pay for the getaway car Blow out the candles and head for the hills Pray that we make it that far
Run from the poison and run from the flames Run from the maddening crowd Laugh at the whispers of who'll take the blame And sing all the sinners out loud
It's amazing what crazy can do When every good citizen's sane When heaven's a desert We'll go to our place in the rain
It's amazing what comes into view When you just connect your heart back to your brain When heaven's a desert We'll go to our place in the rain
