They come, they come.
All these shadows ahead, they'll be clearing the room
Only shadows ahead, barely clearing the roof
An accountant steps to the door in your heart.
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart.
An accountant steps to the door of your heart.
And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart.
Anal, anal
Don't dream it's over.
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over.
And the piper to die
Tells of war and of why.
And the paper today
Tales of war and of waste.
Billy Claire in the roof
Barely clearing the roof
Breadcrumbs, breadcrumbs
They come, they come.
Dead crumb, dead crumb.
They come, they come.
Detente, detente, in the war between us
They come, they come, to build a wall between us
Don't dream and suffer.
Don't dream it's over.
Don't dream in circles.
Don't dream it's over.
Don't dream of an oval.
Don't dream it's over.
Don't drink, be sober.
Don't dream it's over.
Don't treat me t'awful.
Don't dream it's over.
Eclair in the roof
Barely clearing the roof.
Get to know the feeling of liberating anchovies
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief
Hair now, hair now
Brylcreem it over
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hannah, Hannah!
Hey now, hey now
Head down, head down
Don't dream it's over
or
Head now, head now
Don't dream it's over.
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over.
Hey now, Hey now,
Don't scream, it's Grover
Hey now, Hey now,
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it sober.
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream, it's over.
Hey now, hey now
Don't treat me sober.
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream, it's over.
Hey now, hey now
The dream is over.
Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over.
Hey now,
Hey now,
Don't scream at Joseph
Hey now,
Hey now,
Don't dream it's over
Hey ya, hey ya
Hey now, hey now
In a pickle today
In the paper today
In the paper today
Tales of Warren defaced
In the paper today
Tales of war and of waste
In the paper today
Tales of Warren of Wales
In the paper today
Tales of war and of waste
In the paper today
Tells of war in the waste.
In the paper today
Tales of war and of waste.
In the paper today
Tells of war in the wise
But you turn right over to the T.V. perch.
In the paper today
Tales of war and of waste
But you turn right over to the T.V. page.
To build a war between us
or
In the war between us
or
In the war between us
To build a wall between us
Johnny Cash with deluge in a paper cup.
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup.
Lego, lego
To build a war between us
You know that they wanna win.
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
You know that they won't win.
Napalm, napalm!
They come, they come
Now I'm towing my car, there’s a hole in the roof
Papa says it's the cause of my suspicion but there’s no proof.
Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof.
Now I'm towing my car
There's a hole in the roof
It's my position, it's 'cause of my suspension
But there's no proof.
Now I'm towing my car
There's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion
But there's no proof.
Only shadows ahead
Belle Eclaire on the roof
Only shadows ahead
Barely clearing the roof
Only shadows of hell
Only shadows ahead
Pickle, pickle
They come, they come
Play calm, play calm
They come, They come
Take off, take off
They come, they come
Tales of war and the wise.
Tales of war and of waste.
Tales of water and wine
Tales of war and of waste
That eclair in the roof
Barely clearing the roof
The treatment's over
Don't dream it's over
There is freedom with him
There is freedom within
There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Johnny Cash is damaging a paper cup
There is freedom within, there is freedom without
Trying to catch the deluge in a paper cup
There's a war between us,
We know they wanna win.
To build a wall between us,
We know they won't win.
There's a war between us.
To build a wall between us.
They come, they come
To build a war between us
We know we want to win.
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win.
They'll be clearing the roof
Barely clearing the roof
They'll come, they'll come
Deep in the war between us
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
To build a war between us,
You know the fat one wins.
To build a wall between us,
We know they won't win.
To build a war between us
To build a wall between us
To build a world between us
or
To build one between us
To build a wall between us
To peel the wool between us.
To build a wall between us.
Try to catch Italians in a paper cup
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
Try to catch the damage in a paper cup.
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup.
Try to catch the damage in a paper cup
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
(Ed: One line per submission.)
Try to catch the deluxe in a paper cup.
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup.
Try to catch the devil in a paper cup
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
Try to catch the value of a paper cup
Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup
We know they wanna win
We know they won't win
Welcome, welcome, to feudal war between us
They come, they come, to build a wall between us
When the walls come in
When the world comes in
When the world comes in, breadcrumb, breadcrumb..
When the world comes in, they come, they come
When the world comes in
Beckham, Beckham
To build a wall between us.
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us.
You're clean and sober
or
The dream is over
Don't dream it's over
