Lyrics

The water's only gettin' deeper
Days are only growing shorter
Money's only holdin' tighter

But everybody had fun down on Gluesniffer's Bridge

The giving's only gettin' harder
Fever's only climbing higher
Lies are only looking larger

But everybody had fun down on Gluesniffer's Bridge

The rain doesn't call the sunshine out to play
The sun doesn't call for the rain to fall all day
No God sent a breeze in an effort to freeze
The waters we must tread
But everybody had fun down on Gluesniffer's Bridge

Dreams are only fading farther
Sunlight's only dropping lower
I am feeling so much colder

But everybody had fun down on Gluesniffer's Bridge
