Ted Leo and The Pharmacists
Criminal Piece
There's no more bad weather underground
Yeah, it's time to settle down
And for all of the kiddies' sakes
Yeah, you'll want to be around
But who could have seen
Where everyone would go?
And what did it mean?
Not everyone can know
I grew up with no gasoline
On the darkest edge of town
I became quite the changeling
There was just so much around
So much to be seen
And no one to stop you seeing
Oh, the things that I've been
And all of the things I'm being still
And I hold onto some dreams
Though the years seem to move slow
The years have been lean
But that's how we've stayed so gold
So so long to you moderates
Yeah, it's time for getting down
Peace and quiet is criminal
While there's injustice in your town
So go on with your dreams
It's silly to let them go
And say what you mean
Not everyone can know
