Messing with the boys in blue

Don't you know they'll come for you

Better find the exit wound from the flashing of the camera crews

Better tell the ones that know

Taking on the dice that roll

Boy, you don't have a clue

Sending out the IOU

Fashion will lead you over roads that I felt like taking over on the road


Now you're running from the boys in blue

Better hope they don't find you

Never knew that you had rules

Until they broke the ones you thought were true

You never found the eyes that rolled

Never heard the legend told

I wonder if the prince got through 

Imagine if the palace knew


That the captain has taken over roads that I felt like taking over on the road


Why can't we understand the history of man?

Leave every stone unturned and every bridge unburned

Why can't we comprehend the mysteries of man?

Leave every stone unturned and every bridge unburned

These dreams, they don't make sense

You'll never see the gardener or the white picket fences pass the graves


Street lights dance and street lights sing

Someone cut the oxygen and took a message to the king

Announcing that he wasn't royalty


So sing the hook

Let the music move


Why can't we comprehend the mysteries of man on the road
