Telethon Songtext

von Emily Haines

When i'm on will you leave me on?
And when i'm down will you let me get under?
Take cover, can't hide without a house
Newspapers blow over
Can't walk past the driveway w/o asking for directions
So full of stupid questions
When the daylight's like flourescent lights
I'm going to take my time night by night
I hang my hands over your eyes to hide

When i'm on will you rescue me?
I watch that telethon
Got hung up on the word, can't get it over, soldier
When she says nothing is enough, she doesn't mean dont try to fix it
Make plans with your other hand
Dream without concession

When the daylight's like flourescent lights
I'm going to take my time night by night
I hang my hands over your eyes to hide

Bruised Billy Joel - New York state of mind
Take cover, take pleasure
