Hangman
We played Rubber Soul with a razor blade
Behind the church
Hiding place
It was a long joke til the punchline came
Can you read my mind?
Read my mind
Follow along to end of the song...
Hangman
We played double dutch with a hand grenade
Behind the church
Hiding place
Apathetic to the devil's face
Wear the Sheriff's badge
Put your toys away
They let us go
Saying "Let us Pray!"
Youth Without Youth
Hangman
We played hide and seek on the fire escape
Through the smoke
We saw the flame
It was a long wait til the fire truck came
On the count of 3
Jump with me
On the count of 3
One.... Two... One... Two... Three
Go!
Youth Without Youth
Hangman
We played blind mans bluff with the ninth brigade
Throw the brick through the window pane
Double dutch til they stop the game
Til the cops show up
Handcuff stunned
They let us go
But we lost one
Hangman
We played blind mans bluff til they stopped the game
Youth without youth
Born without time
Youth without youth
Can you ready my mind?
