The Sing

Lyrics

Drinking
 While sleeping strangers unknowingly keep me company
 In the hotel bar
 ♪
 Looking out a window that isn't there
 ♪
 Looking at the carpet and the chairs
 ♪
 Well, the only words I've said today are "beer" and "thank you"
 ♪
 Beer
 Thank you
 ♪
 Beer
 Thank you
 ♪
 Beer
 Giving praise in a quiet way
 Like a church
 Like a church
 
 Like a church
 That's far away
 ♪
 I've got limitations
 Like Marvin Gaye
 Mortal joy is that way
 ♪
 Outside a train sings its whale song
 To a long, long train
 Long, long gone
 Then silence comes back alone
 ♪
 High as scaffolding
 ♪
 Until the wind finds something to ping
 Or the pinging thing finds the wind
 We're all looking for a body
 Or a means to make one sing
