Back On The Chain Gang |
|
Pretenders |
I found a picture of you
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
You had hijacked my world at night
To a place in the past
We've been passed out of
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Now we're back in the fights
We're back on the train, yeah
Ooooh-oh, back on the chain gang
Circumstance beyond our control
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
The phone, TV and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from Hell
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies
Put us back on the train, yeah
Ooooh-oh, back on the chain gang
---- Instrumental Interlude ----
The powers that be
That force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you
Well, I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part
I found a picture of you
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle was your part
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart
Now I'm back on the train, yeah
Ooooh-oh, back on the chain gang
