Streets - Lock The Locks lyrics

rate me

I had a funny dream and I came to screaming

That I was in a funny house but it was kind of mine

And I was with you only it wasn't you

It happened in the past but it was somehow now

It put it into focus, things became clear

I had to plan something I handed in my notice

Even though to most it looked random

My heart had left I was just going in tandem

(Chorus)

(I smoked one too many cigarettes

I heard one too many lies

And I've gambled on too many bets

I lost it all too this life)

I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (...To this life)

Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave

I'll leave one evening be seen off

At a party for my parting in a bar

It starts on the early side and ends in a gutter

With a fumble with a colleague in a car

No more alarm that barks in the dark

With the beeping like darts to the heart

Yes, the maze it does look deep

And days are over for dozing on my cheek

(I smoked one too many cigarettes

I heard one too many lies

And I've gambled on too many bets

I lost it all too this life)

I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (...To this life)

Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave

Read the funny card signed by all

That was purchased by the person I will always recall

Lock away my labors, steel stationary

A kiss on the lips or a grin in a grip

I had a funny dream and I came to screaming

That I was in a funny house but it was kind of mine

And I was with you only it wasn't you

It happened in the past but it was somehow now

I came to it noon through the tune of a spoon

In a mug in a room, but I knew very soon

That the mug in the room, was the mug yours truly

Because I never stood up for what I wanted to do

(I smoked one too many cigarettes

I heard one too many lies

And I've gambled on too many bets

I lost it all too this life)

I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (...To this life)

Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave

(I smoked one too many cigarettes

I heard one too many lies

And I've gambled on too many bets

I lost it all too this...

I smoked one too many cigarettes

I heard one too many lies

And I've gambled on too many bets

I lost it all too this life)

I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (...To this life)

Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave (...To this life)
