Lyrics Mechanical Poet

Mechanical Poet

Nice Place For A Sad Story

A naughty boy, a pretty girl

The coolest lad and prom night queen

A sleepy town, a country school

The cruelest place you’ve ever seen

The signs of bars and traffic lights

So where you think could all this happen?

Right!

Just look outside

Ain’t it the same street spreading far and wide?

Just step outside

And see this story with your own eyes

A cell, a flower store

A field of graves… that’s something weird

It may be strange, it may be odd

Sometimes it’s hard to hold your tears

It’s not a tale with elves and knights

You almost know where it could happen

Right!

Just look outside

Ain’t it the same street spreading far and wide?

Just step outside

And see this story with your own eyes

“More spite and love, less joy and laugh,

This time it’s all a real life

Frustrated plight, a suicide…

No chance to wait for a happy ending”

Right!

Just look outside

Ain’t it the same street spreading far and wide?

Just step outside

And see this story with your own eyes

Right!

Just look outside

Ain’t it the same street spreading far and wide?

Just step outside

And see this story with your own eyes
