[The Killers, Lou Reed - Tranquilize lyrics]
Time it tells, living in my home town
Wedding bells, they begin easy
Live it down, baby don't talk that much
Baby knows, but baby don't tease me
In the park, we could go walking
Drown in the dark, or we could go sailing
On the sea
Always here, always on time
Close call, was it love, or was it just easy?
Money talks when people need shoes and socks
Steady, boys, I'm thinking she needs me
I was just sipping on something sweet
I don't need political process
I got this feeling that they're going
To break down the door
I got this feeling they they're going
To come back for more
See, I was thinking that I lost my mind
But, it's been getting to me all this time
And it don't stop dragging me down
Silently, reflection turns my world to stone
Patiently, correction leaves us all alone
And sometimes I'm a travel man
But tonight, this engine's failing
I still hear the children playing
Kick the can, kick the can
Skip and blackjack
Steal a car and ring a round-rosey
Rock and roll, candy land, boogeyman
Run away and give me your sneakers
Acid rain, when Abel looked up at Cain
We began the weeping and wailing
A hurried high from pestilence
Pills and pride
It's a shame, we could've gone sailing
But heaven knows, heaven knows everything
Tranquilize
I got this feeling that they're going
To break down the door
I got this feeling they they're going
To come back for more
See, I was thinking that I lost my mind
But, it's been getting to me all this time
And it don't stop dragging me down
Silently, reflection turns my world to stone
Patiently, correction leaves us all alone
And sometimes I'm a travel man
But tonight, this engine's failing
And I still hear the children playing
Dead beat dancers come to us and stay
'Cause, I don't care where you've been
And I don't care what you've seen
We're the ones who still believe
And we're looking for a page
In that lifeless book of hope
Where a dream might help you cope
Where the Bushes and the bombs
Are tranquilized
Wedding bells, they begin easy
Live it down, baby don't talk that much
Baby knows, but baby don't tease me
In the park, we could go walking
Drown in the dark, or we could go sailing
On the sea
Always here, always on time
Close call, was it love, or was it just easy?
Money talks when people need shoes and socks
Steady, boys, I'm thinking she needs me
I was just sipping on something sweet
I don't need political process
I got this feeling that they're going
To break down the door
I got this feeling they they're going
To come back for more
See, I was thinking that I lost my mind
But, it's been getting to me all this time
And it don't stop dragging me down
Silently, reflection turns my world to stone
Patiently, correction leaves us all alone
And sometimes I'm a travel man
But tonight, this engine's failing
I still hear the children playing
Kick the can, kick the can
Skip and blackjack
Steal a car and ring a round-rosey
Rock and roll, candy land, boogeyman
Run away and give me your sneakers
Acid rain, when Abel looked up at Cain
We began the weeping and wailing
A hurried high from pestilence
Pills and pride
It's a shame, we could've gone sailing
But heaven knows, heaven knows everything
Tranquilize
I got this feeling that they're going
To break down the door
I got this feeling they they're going
To come back for more
See, I was thinking that I lost my mind
But, it's been getting to me all this time
And it don't stop dragging me down
Silently, reflection turns my world to stone
Patiently, correction leaves us all alone
And sometimes I'm a travel man
But tonight, this engine's failing
And I still hear the children playing
Dead beat dancers come to us and stay
'Cause, I don't care where you've been
And I don't care what you've seen

And we're looking for a page

Where a dream might help you cope
Where the Bushes and the bombs
Are tranquilized
