Lyrics

[00:15.51] Putting your patience to the test
[00:19.88] Putting your body on the line for less
[00:24.31] Didn't you know there was a choice?
[00:28.26] It's never yours but someone else's voice
[00:34.01] Selling your body to the street
[00:40.58] Selling your girlfriend's to the night for cheap
[00:46.12] Wearing a jacket made of meat
[00:50.67] Sealing a letter made with this horse's feet
[00:55.47] And now you've heard that
[00:58.26] Waves turn to grey
[01:00.32] Life in the shade
[01:02.57] A violent crime
[01:04.96] And that's the USA
[01:07.08] Platinum's on the rise
[01:09.62] Playboys in disguise
[01:11.87] I'm just tryin' to find
[01:13.99] A mountain I can climb
[01:16.33]
[01:35.30] Putting your patience to the test
[01:39.97] Putting your body on the line for less
[01:44.36] Didn't you know there was a choice?
[01:48.54] It's never yours in someone else's voice
[01:53.79] And now you seen that
[01:56.41] Blondes turn to grey
[01:58.70] Life in the shade
[02:00.78] A violent crime
[02:03.17] And that's the USA
[02:05.40] Porn's on the rise
[02:07.91] Psycho's in disguise
[02:10.03] I'm just tryin' to find
[02:12.27] A mountain I can climb
[02:14.86]
[02:24.17] Darling, ain't nobody gonna tell us
[02:27.40] They're gonna be oh so jealous
[02:29.53] We're gonna be oh so silent
[02:31.74] They're gonna be stoned in silence
[02:34.05] Ain't nobody gonna tell us (I didn't want to ask you, baby)
[02:36.64] They're gonna be oh so jealous
[02:38.66] We're gonna be oh so silent (I didn't want you to ask anybody, baby)
[02:41.13] They're gonna be stoned in silence
[02:43.38] They're gonna be oh so jealous (Is anyone asking maybe?)
[02:45.72] They're gonna be oh so jealous (Can anyone even hear me?)
[02:48.03] They're gonna be
[02:50.28] All right
[02:53.64] Why are you waiting beyond the door?
[03:01.27] Life turns to dust
[03:03.93] And rain turns to rust
[03:06.12] Gossip is a truth
[03:08.32] And money paid for the lies we trust
[03:10.65] Your love is a surprise
[03:12.60] Homeless saints are in disguise
[03:15.27] I'm just tryin' to find
[03:17.38] A nice place for you and I
[03:20.12]
