Tin Laurels
When you got to the city
You had two hundred dollars
A photo of your father
You thought that that was all you'd need
(Party all night wont stop until the dawn)
(Party all night, drink until we're gone)
Once you got settled in your corner
Out your dirty window
Was a four-story monster
Wearing the outline of a crown
Graffito coronation
(Party all night wont stop until the dawn)
(Party all night, drink until we're gone)
He was up on every billboard
You heard him on the air
Every meal from tin cans
You listen to your neighbors pray
"He takes all the desperation away"
Don't give up on this city
I'm no different from you
And I need you (Has anyone ever been in love like this?)
I need you (Has anyone, anywhere, ever been in love like this?)
And I need you (Has anyone been in love like this?)
Has anyone, anywhere?
Paper idols in their tin laurels
We will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
Paper idols in their tin laurels
We will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will
Take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
You had two hundred dollars
A photo of your father
You thought that that was all you'd need
(Party all night wont stop until the dawn)
(Party all night, drink until we're gone)
Once you got settled in your corner
Out your dirty window
Was a four-story monster
Wearing the outline of a crown
Graffito coronation
(Party all night wont stop until the dawn)
(Party all night, drink until we're gone)
He was up on every billboard
You heard him on the air
Every meal from tin cans
You listen to your neighbors pray
"He takes all the desperation away"
Don't give up on this city
I'm no different from you
And I need you (Has anyone ever been in love like this?)
I need you (Has anyone, anywhere, ever been in love like this?)
And I need you (Has anyone been in love like this?)
Has anyone, anywhere?
Paper idols in their tin laurels
We will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
Paper idols in their tin laurels
We will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will
Take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
And we will take them as they come
