When the SS crashed the party
My favorite band was setting up onstage
Now they're wearing their hair like you and your sister
Stacking up records, setting them straight

How it used to be
Oh yeah it really used to
You'll get used to it
And forget all the ways and the names of the new police

Rescue she came from south of Manitoba
Riding on the back of a jelly roll
Sold your soul to Saxophone Joel
Jazz Comment cries:

He looks just like James Dean!
Oh, that is James Dean!
You'll get used to it
And forget all the ways and the names of the new high priest
Yeah

Come down, Daniel, to the lion's den
There are opportunities in foreign communities
Who wears a collar? Who wears a crown?
Where is the college in the campus town?

I used to know
Oh yeah, I swear I used to
You'll get used to it
And forget all the ways and the names of the new Ho King

A million people's faces
Is a hard act to follow
A million wacky races
Running through the hall, oh yeah
A million private spaces
Filling up tomorrow
A million people's faces
Is a hard act to follow

When I was 18
Someone got stabbed in a church
But I got used to it
And forgave all the ways and the names
It was so long ago, anyways

Come down, Daniel, to the lion's den
Come down, Daniel, to the lion's den
Come down, Daniel, to the lion's den
Come down, Daniel, to the lion's den
Come down, Daniel (Come down, Daniel)
Come down, Daniel (Come down, Daniel)
Oh come down, Daniel
Come on down, Daniel
You come down, Daniel

It's a hard kind of lover who won't even look in your eyes
And it's a hard kind of life when you can't even open your eyes

A million people's faces
