Lyrics The Handsome Family

The Handsome Family

All The TVs In Town

You can't see the stars above the city skyline

But sometimes the air shines like gold under the yellow streetlights

The psychotics in the park howling up at the sky

And the silent airplanes slowly drifting by

Sometimes it all seems to glow as bright

As the light from all the TVs in town

Sometimes it all seems to glow as bright

As the light from all the TVs in town

But when I wake up scared in those still summer nights

When the air hangs like snakes around flashing neon signs

It seems like there's nothing along these broken roads

But blinking lights on creaking metal poles

Like a thousand crying eyes dropping tears

In the light from all the TVs in town

Tears in the light from all the TVs in town
