The War Is Over

A man once told me that life was like a collage

he said there's nothing much to spies like us

just killing time, that's all

and there are spacecraft orbiting the earth

guided by 90 year old russians that haven't heard

the war is over, how do you feel

and how have you been baby

well she got married and she had kids

and they sear sex and not the bomb

and the rest is just ad libbed

and me I'm waiting for something

that does not come

for something to crack

for something to go wrong

I'm inside out and I'd say

This is where we get off

this is where we do anything we want

and this is where I amuse you

A man once told me that life was lke a collage

he said the truth is not radio friendly espionage

the war is over, how do you feel

and where have you been baby

well we got stuck and we got lost

between good-bye and the chemical sky

and a nuclear albatross

when I sleep, I see rain

when I'm alone, I am in pain

and everything is not the same

as on the big screen

I'm inside out and I'd say

this is where we get off
