Monday Night in Germantown

There's a dull hum from the telephone lines

It's a dead calm all around

In a half-moon sky

Cobblestones and the old gas lights

It's Monday night in Germantown

The pulsing of a traffic light

Tick-tocking through the night

The window shops have all gone home

Silhouettes bleed into sky

Like an ink pen drawing horizon lines

I'm a ghost walking 'round Germantow

Every day goes by

Every night sneaks up behind

Like a London fog

Without a shroud of mystery

But we're live tonight

And one night only at The Foxhound

If you're bored and lonely

If you're not too far away

And we play all our new songs

Calling out, "Is there anyone around?"

Can you hear the sound?

Of Monday night in Germantown

Mug night, ladies free

No door with a college ID

Prime rib, fish and chips

Packers, Vikings, TV screens

A shop light in the storage room

With a couch, a mop, a bucket, and broom

A window seat, cold pizza

Rock and roll with a vista

Old stone tavern, blood-red door

Cigarettes SOS'd

In a bottle on the stage floor old

By an old rolled up Rolling Stone

There's a payphone you can call

There's a dartboard down the hall

There's a deer head on the wall

No door on the stall

And we played all our new songs

Calling out, "Is there anyone around?"

Can you hear the sound?

It's Monday night in Germantown

Yeah, we sang all our new songs

Calling out, "Is there anyone around?"

Can you hear the sound?

That's Monday night in Germantown

Yeah, we played all our new songs

Calling out, "Is there anyone around?"

Can you hear the sound?

It's Monday night in Germantown

I'm with my brothers in arms

And we're rockin' the bars

It's 1 a.m., is there anyone around?

Can you hear the sound?

Monday night in Germantown

Can you hear the sound?

Monday night in Germantown

Can you hear the sound?

It's Monday night and Germantown's asleep
