Signs

Signs are lost

Signs disappear

Turn invisible

Got no sign

Somebody got busted

Got a face of stone

And a ghostwritten biography

Dogs start to rush in

Hungry for some food

Dogs start a-twitching

And they're looking at you

It was light

By five

Torn all apart

All in the name of democracy

He's hurt

He's dying

Claimed he was a terrorist

Claimed to avert a catastrophe

Someone should'a told him

That the buck stops here

No one ever said

That he was involved with thieves

And they're blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

No sense of harmony

No sense of time

Don't mention harmony

Say: What is it? What is it? What is it?

Give a little shock

And he raises his hand

Somebody shouts out, says

What is it? What is it? What is it?

He was shot down in the night!

People ride by

But his body's still alive

The girl in the window what has she done?

She looks down to me

Says: I don't want to die!

And I'm blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Somebody could have told us where they go

Crawling all around looking for foot, foot, footprints

Now tell me what the hell have we become?

Some dirty little bastards what the hell is going on?

No sense of harmony

No sense of time

Don't mention harmony

Say what is it? What is it? What is it?

Give a little shock

And he raises his hand

Somebody shouts out, says

What is it? What is it? What is it?

He was shot down in the night!

People ride by

But his body's still alive

The girl in the window what has she done?

She looks down to me

Says: I don't want to die!

And they're blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind

Blind, blind

Blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
