Till St. Dymphna Kicks Us Out (Full Band)
[Verse 1]
Rise and shine, get out of bed
Get ready for the day
Get a coffee from the deli
And walk the riverbank
[Verse 2]
Be careful with your headphones on
When you cross the FDR
Don't wanna be a casualty
Before you make it to the bar
[Verse 3]
And hide your shakes, your worried face
And sit down in the back
Your friends got here ahead of you
And night is fallin' fast
[Chorus]
Oh, you know you shouldn't say it so you're thinking it out loud
Some things we lost are never to be found
But if you're gonna talk like that, at least buy another round
And we can keep drinkin' till St. Dymphna kicks us out
[Verse 4]
This world is made of blinking lights
It's changing all the time
But depending who you're talking to
It's likely to be fine
[Verse 5]
I watched you go from bad to worse
The blues is here to stay
But sometimes it's the simple things
That make it all okay
[Verse 6]
Oh, you don't have to lie, say you're alright
We're just happy that you're here
But if you yell and tell me to go to Hell
Well, at least you'd sound sincere
[Chorus]
Oh, you know it's all a spectacle when you go to take a bow
You always did get nervous in a crowd
So if you need some company, I'll gladly stick around
We can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out
[Bridge]
Let's get enabled, great minds, they think alike
I never was a good judge of when to call it a night
[Chorus]
Well, you don't wanna say it but you're thinking it out loud
Some things go south and they never turn around
So if you want a confidant, I'd never let you down
And we can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out
We can keep drinking till St. Dymphna kicks us out
