lyrics

You were talkin like you had discovered a rare and exotic bird
Had a feelin like I shouldn't believe it but I hung onto every word
It takes an effort just to play that part, trade away my time
Didn't say it doesn't pay to be smart, better toe the line

And I'm callin out to the ones who know
In the twilight of the empire, we'll leave no stone unturned

People say it's the end of an era, gotta cash in the ticket line
Drivin in, the funerals keep comin, like the number of traffic signs
Up go the flags, and the radio is gonna save my life
Callin out on a tin-can phone, say everything is fine

And I'm callin out to the ones who know
In the twilight of the empire, we'll leave no stone unturned
I'm callin out to the ones who know
Feelin alright, despite it, I'm swimmin in the undertow

You were talkin like you had discovered a rare and exotic bird
Had a feelin like I shouldn't believe it, but I hung onto every word
It takes an effort just to play that part, waste away my life
Calin out on the radio, say everything is fine

And I'm callin out to the ones who know
In the twilight of the empire, we'll leave no stone unturned
I'm callin out to the ones who know
Feelin alright, despite it, I'm swimmin in the undertow

I got no business bein' here (Ooh sha la la, ooh sha la la)
I got no business bein' here (Ooh sha la la, ooh sha la la)
I got no business bein' here (Ooh sha la la, ooh sha la la)
I got no business bein' here
