Intro: A (electric)
Verse 1
I'm told the eventual downfall is just a bill from the restaurant.
You told me I could order the moon, babe, just as long as I shoot what I want.
What the last ten minutes have taught me: bet the hand that your money's on.
Where the hell have the '70s brought me? You trade me away long gone.
Chorus 1
For the love of a god, you say, not a letter from an occupant.
("ooo-weee-ooo-eeeoooo-oooweeeooo-weeeeoooo-oooo") (x2)
Verse 2
The time that your enemy gives you, good times are not the ones you want.
I cried five rivers on the way here, which one will you skate away on?
The tune you'll be humming forever, all the words are replaced and wrong,
with a shower of yeahs and whatevers, you trade me away long gone.
Chorus 2
For the love of a god, you say, not a letter from an occupant.
"ooo-weee-ooo-eeeoooo-oooweeeooo-weeeeoooo-oooo" (x2)
Where have all sensations gone? Where have all sensations gone? (x2)
"Ommlllalalmmamlallallala" (or something like that.)
Chorus 2
For the love of a god, you say, not a letter from an occupant. (x3)
Bridge
The song, the song, the song that's shaking me.
*Repeat Chorus 1 (x2), go into the 'ooos' (x2) and end on A.
