Talking at the Same Time

Get a job, save your money, listen to Jane

Everybody knows umbrellas cost more in the rain

All the news is bad

Is there any other kind?

Everybody's talking at the same time

Well everybody's talking at the same time

It's hard times for some

For others it's sweet

Someone makes money when there's blood in the street

Don't take any lip

Stay in line

Everybody's talking at the same time

Well the dog is in the kitchen

And the war drags on

The trees wait by the freeway

All the money is all gone

Well she told me she would leave me

I ignored all the signs

And now everybody's talking at the same time

Everybody's talking at the same time

Ain't no one coming to pull you from the mud

You gotta build your nest high enough to ride out the flood

I know you're leaving and there's no more next time

Everybody's talking at the same time

A tiny boy sat and he played in the sand

He made a sword from a stick

And a gun from his hand

Well we bailed out all the millionaires

They've got the fruit

We've got the rind

And everybody's talking at the same time

Everybody's talking at the same time
