Night Birds - Domestic Dispute lyrics

He comes home around a quarter to two
The walls are so thin I can smell the booze
He wakes her up, she starts chewing him out
It doesn't matter what
They're screaming about

Oh no, they're at it again
They're gonna have it out until 4 am
It's getting worse and I don't
Know what to do
I could call the cops but it's just no use
They're still gonna beat each
Other black and blue
It's a domestic dispute
I lie frozen - fixed with fear
I wish I was anywhere but here
I'm not prying or being a creep
I'm just trying to get some sleep

Oh no, they're at it again
They're gonna have it out until 4 am
It's getting worse and I don't
Know what to do
I could call the cops but it's just no use
They're still gonna beat each
Other black and blue
It's a domestic dispute

She gets angry and he yells back
No reply then I hear a smack

Oh no, they're at it again
They're gonna have it out until 4 am
They call it off at least once a week
The violence is gonna hit it's peak
It's getting worse and I don't
Know what to do
I could call the cops but it's just no use
They're still gonna beat each
Other black and blue
It's a domestic dispute
