Verse 1

Hold your fire

I'm coming out and I'll tell you the truth

I was trying to raise my roof

Did you see it

That I needed to prove

That my stinger always stays

You said she's beautiful when she plays

Did I hit you in the proper place

Suddenly

Chorus 1

I, oh well I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

Yes I could live in this town

Before I head for home

Verse 2

It's my turn

With the spotlight burning a hole

But my bird-heart's turning cold

As the temperature rises all around

To the sound of a ticking bomb

And then it's not just showing off here

You know there's something going on here

Going on here

Suddenly

Chorus 2

I, oh well I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

Well I could live in this town

Before I head for home

Bridge

(mute)

And considered it odd

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

That I ever stayed

ever stayed

You know that feeling you get

when you don't want to leave

That feeling you get

when you don't want to leave

That feeling when you don't want to leave

Suddenly

Chorus 3

I, oh well I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years

Yes I could live in this town

Five cold years before I

Well I could live in this town

Before I head for home

And considered it odd
