You finally did something about it?
When the kick of the drum
Lined up with the beat of your heart?
Stuck in a corn maze
With only a transistor radio
Making paths with the sound waves
And echoes and oh, oh, oh...
Yeah we heard you, Pete
Real loud and clear on the last one
And we were pulling for you
A thousand times a day
It don't take much
To sound like a sleeping prophet
When your misery sounds so much like ours
So far away, so far away, so far away
Do you remember the night
We finally heard something about it?
When the kick of the drum
Went off like artillery fire?
And if you're wondering, man
Well yeah, I will say that it got to us
The shrapnel flew right through the screen from the comedy hour
Yeah we heard you, Keith
Real loud and clear on the last one
I must've listened to you
A thousand times a day
And for one short breath
It sounds like the world is ending
Exploding in space and beginning again
So far away, so far away
Yeah we heard you, Pete
Real loud and clear on the last one
And we were pulling for you
A thousand times a day
It don't take much
To sound like a sleeping prophet
When your misery sounds so much like ours
So far away, so far away, so far away
Do you remember the moment You finally did something about it? When the kick of the drum Lined up with the beat of your heart? Stuck in a corn maze With only a transistor radio Making paths with the sound waves And echoes and oh, oh, oh... Yeah we heard you, Pete Real loud and clear on the last one And we were pulling for you A thousand times a day It don't take much To sound like a sleeping prophet When your misery sounds so much like ours So far away, so far away, so far away Do you remember the night We finally heard something about it? When the kick of the drum Went off like artillery fire? And if you're wondering, man Well yeah, I will say that it got to us The shrapnel flew right through the screen from the comedy hour Yeah we heard you, Keith Real loud and clear on the last one I must've listened to you A thousand times a day And for one short breath It sounds like the world is ending Exploding in space and beginning again So far away, so far away Yeah we heard you, Pete Real loud and clear on the last one And we were pulling for you A thousand times a day It don't take much To sound like a sleeping prophet When your misery sounds so much like ours So far away, so far away, so far away Explain Request ×
