On the neon sign next to my third story fire escape Down to the brass so cold and olive, your dishevelled bed The rain so fine it's spun Cause you don't know what you've begun
God knows what waking hour, there's a bar across the street Where brave ladies team in masses, conspired to drink you off Their mind, but I know I've won (Oh yeah) Cause you don't know what you've begun
Here when I pull the string you put the can against your ear and My voice become an ocean in the shelf surrounding you Until the days are done Cause you don't know what you've begun (Oh no) You don't know what you've begun
