Mathew Good Band The War Is Over Lyrics

The War Is Over Lyrics

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 like 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
