How Long Is Your Life-Royal Canoe

Hold on, are you talking it up? What's with all the fussing with the t-shirt, t-shirt? Oh no, you just don't want it enough Oh no, you be covering up Standing all tall like you knowwhat you don't know So afraid of the hush ush How long's your life? You feel it passing by How long's your life? Are you stepping out of time? Black dog, black dog ripping up the carpet Goddamn, if you were a man, do you think you'd have a home yet? And even when their eyes pull your mouth shut You're huffin' and a-puffin' Are you half-cut? Laying like a old rug Hold up, are you getting it right? What you gonna do until you see her, see her? Done up like you're having a night Oh no, did you get used to the light? j How's it going to look when you go where you don't go I Getting lost in the night, night How long's your life? You feel it passing by How long's your life? Are you stepping out of time? All the day the sun is rising somewhere in the sky Sing me a true song That grows from inside you You can carry it, but for how long? Before you lose the naked sound There's a greyhound pulling away And you're silhouetting on the curb Everything's missing from what you would say, but the words (There they go)
