Lyrics

Now
Something must be burning
Cause girl, I know your cooking
It?ll always be your life
Setting up the table
Biting back your anger
Polish up your forks and knives
Are you hungry now?
Come sit down
It?s over now
You should be proud
Hear the neighbor?s dogs
Barking at the summer
When October?s nearly done
No one wants to tell them
The sun?s already lifted
And there?s no more warmth to come
It?s over now
But they still howl
They found us out
Those useless hounds
You?re so good
You?re so sweet
You?re a reason to make ends meet
If I only knew how
Lucky days in a week
Seven chances for relief
What more do you need now?
We feel like a painting
A frozen little moment
That almost comes alive
You don?t need a critic
Or any great appreciation
To see that something?s died
We?re older now
It?s all around
We?re tired out
We can?t sleep now
Life is good
Life is sweet
But then I?m living on memory
I?ll have to teach you how
Lucky days in a week
Seven chances at misery
What more do you need now?
It?s over now
Take your bows
An empty house
Your finest hour
You?re so good
You?re so sweet
You?re a reason to make ends meet
If I only knew how
Any day of the week
A little bit of our masterpiece
The paint?s all dried up now
