The War Is Over / Omissions of the Omen

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

Wait for me if i don't show up
take from me this hypocrits cup
and someone to run the world
someone would love to have my first world problems
kill the moon and turn out the sun
lock your door and load your gun
free at last now the time has come to choose

Man makes god so god can make man
man makes the devil so that he can understand
why it is that every day,
everything always turns out this way
you and me we were never here
you and me we were not that clear
you and me we died a long, long time ago

Don't think just come along
do believe that it won't belong
everything's open all night and all day anyway
build me a ship of wood and steel
bring me a net and fishing reel
sail me to the place where I can find my brother
safe and sound
wait for me if I don't show up
take from me this hypocrits cup
and kill the moon and turn out the sun
omissions of the omen
