Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My mother said to me
That I would get in trouble
Our father won't come home
'Cause he is seeing double
[Verse 2]
Out in the endless green
Your eyes are so misleading
That's when your car pulls up
Its hood is black and gleaming
[Verse 3]
And in a while
You start a smile
The earth is wild
You've got no time
[Verse 4]
Wild in our ways
What we are making
Heartless to say
Go on pretending
[Verse 5]
Wild in our ways
What we are making
Heartless to say
You go, go on pretending
[Verse 6]
One chance to fall behind
The lines that would not let you
Can I believe in how
The past is what will catch you
[Verse 7]
And in a while
You start a smile
The earth is wild
You've got no time
[Verse 8]
Wild in our ways
What we are making
Heartless to say
Go on pretending
[Verse 9]
Wild in our ways
What we are making
Heartless to say
We go, go on pretending
[Verse 10]
Wild in our ways
Go on pretending
