Roman Candles - Hard Working Americans

Spread neck speed ball way to high way

Needle is broken no telling on gas

A highway dog plays a Russian roulette

In and out of the sun under the overpass

Why on Earth?

They say only Heaven knows

Why we turn every last word ever heard

On each other over where everybody goes

I know, I think therefore I am because

I am or so I thought I was

But when in Rome they say

«Shoot Roman Candles» that way

Nobody thinks you’re crazy

Passing it back and forth like a fifth of July

I realize I can’t tell you what to tell yourself

But if we’re still not what you thought you wanted

Well, you can’t deny it we were something else

(Oooh…my love)

Why on Earth?

They say only Heaven knows

Why we turn every last word ever heard

On each other over where everybody goes

I know, I think therefore I am because

I am or so I thought I was

But when in Rome they say

«Shoot Roman Candles» that way

Nobody thinks you’re crazy

(guitar solo)

We don’t leave who we fell for

We leave who we can’t believe they have become

(Oooh…my love)

Leaving I don’t mind as much getting left behind

Why on Earth?

They say only Heaven knows

Why we turn every last word ever heard

On each other over where everybody goes

I know, I think therefore I am because

I am or so I thought I was

But when in Rome they say

«Shoot Roman Candles» that way

Nobody thinks you’re crazy

…you're crazy

Nobody thinks you’re crazy
