I sat outside my front window

This story's going somewhere

He's well hung and I am hanging up

There's a song on the radio that says:

"Let's get this party started."

So let's get this party started

What you do on your own time's just fine

My imagination's much worse

I just never want to know

What meant the world had folded

Like legs and fingers holding onto what escapes me;

What he has: a better kiss that never lasts

You said, between your smiles and regrets:

"Don't say it's over."

Dead and gone, dead and gone, yeah

The calm before the storm set it off

And the sun burnt out tonight

Reception less than warm set it off

And the sun burnt out too

This is me standing in the arch of the door

Hating that look that's on your face

That says there's another fool like me

There's one born every minute

There's one born every minute

What you do on your own time's just fine

My imagination's much worse

I just never want to know

What meant the world imploded, inflated then demoted

All my oxygen to product gas

And suffocated my last chance to say...

Between your smiles and regrets:

"Don't say it's over."

Dead and gone, dead and gone, yeah

The calm before the storm set it off

And the sun burnt out tonight

Reception less than warm set it off

And the sun burnt out too

Calm before the storm (set it off, set it off)

Calm before the storm set it off

And the sun burnt out tonight

Reception less than warm set it off

And the sun burnt out tonight, yeah

Sun burnt out tonight, the sun burnt out tonight
