Never Really Been

Lyrics

Sirens are a-screaming, shots ring out at night
 Movie cameras rolling in
 And there goes my hero with his head between his legs
 And all this time I believed in him
 Now, what is the sound of snow falling down
 On the tombstone in the dead of the night?
 And who is the hound at the downtown dog pound
 Who speaks English when the watchman's not in sight?
 And where will you be in 1993?
 Still sitting in the same chair
 Sinning is for sinners and I'm just a beginner
 But I've never really been touched there
 Hey ain't it strange how some things never change
 Ain't it strange how nothing stays the same?
 You were thinkin' I was distressed about some universe oppressed
 But I was just depressed about my last pinball game
 I've learned to accept and not to expect
 The respect and neglect that I get
 I've tried not to forget about what hasn't happened yet
 And on this I place my last bet
 Hey did you give what you get
 Did you get what you give?
 of your?
 Winning is for winners
 And I know spring follows winter
 But I've never really been touched there
 You know it's hard to be nice when hate becomes your vice
 And you can't find peace anywhere
 Love's just not for lovers
 Get off your high horse brother
 Drop your fist and get out of here
