He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth, bite to eat, and he's rollin'
Never changes a thing
The week ends, the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wonderin' what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
As these crimes between us grow deeper
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns he forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged, no time to exchange
Oh, when all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennae waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
Candyman tempting the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by weight loss
Program a-cutting the corners
A loose end, loose end, cut, cut
On the fence, care not to offend
Cut, cut, cut, cut
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Lights down, you up and die
