Lyrics
Thought the wall was a gun And that the gun was a flag That the flag was a truck And that the truck a mighty bird of prey 'Fraid they'd take it away from you Why would they take it away from you? For without it, where would you be? At the stop 'n' shop at Route 43, that's where you'd be now Objects may appear to be more than they appear to be More than this reality, a salve for your insecurity More than what they are It's what you think you are Woah, you hear that dissonance now (Dissonance) Yeah, the sound of sweet romance now (Sweet romance) Mmm, it's an awkward dance (Awkward dance) Mmm, the sound of sweet romancе now Oh, listen, isn't there somеthing that's missing here? Isn't there more to choose from than false choices and fear? For without it, where would you be? At the stop 'n' shop at Route 43, that's where you'd be Thought the hat was a fist And that the fist was a bust Of a horse or an obelisk Clenched fist to the arsonist grist for the mill of a pacifist? Sounds like a job for Sisyphus 'Fraid they'd take it away from you Why would they take it away from you? For without it, where would you be? At the stop 'n' shop at Avenue B, that's where you'd be Objects may appear to be more than they appear to be More than this reality a binding agent for the majority More than what they are It's what you think you are Woah, you hear that dissonance now (Dissonance) Yeah, the sound of sweet romance now (Sweet romance) Mmm, it's an awkward dance (Awkward dance) Mmm, the sound of sweet, sweet romance The sound of sweet— Mild sounds of sweet, sweet romancing Oh, the sound of sweet romance
