Current song lyrics
They took enough of my mind<br />To make a calculator<br />Addin? up the figures, they?ll find<br />That love?s a dumbwaiter<br /><br />Waitin? for the dream to fade<br />Right into you hit parade<br />Maybe I?ve made that long black list<br />But I was born when we first kissed<br /><br />Chorus:<br />Not another overnight story<br />No overnight success<br />We?ve hung around too long for glory<br />Is it too late for happiness? <br />Yesterday is over now<br />And we?ve come too far to bow<br /><br />Here comes swifty, they?re off<br />To chase another headline<br />But all the news gets soft<br />Before it makes the deadline<br /><br />The morning paper hits my door<br />But I don?t read it any more<br />Yes I know what went on last night<br />You made your coffin before daylight<br /><br />Chorus<br /><br />They?re adding inches at our expense<br />To the measure of their capital worth<br />The next big thing is gonna dance and sing<br />Us all off of the face of this earth<br /><br />They call it big time love<br />But I?m not nervous<br />?cause all your turtledoves<br />Are out of service<br /><br />And all those arc lights comb the sky<br />For any little birds that fly<br />You?re all still jerks, and we?re still here<br />Fast asleep at the big premiere<br /><br />Chorus
