If you get tired of just hanging around
Pick up a guitar and spin a web of sound
Then you could be strung out all day
With lovers and clowns
Now I find myself hanging around

It's been a long war, we're tired and dirty
Still not dirty enough for you

I've been thieving
I stole the light from the dawn
And if you come round on this ledge
You wish you'd never been born
Tell me you can see me
Or can't you see through it all?
I'm empty, lost, alone
Oh won't you heed my call?

It's been a long war, we're so tired and dirty
Still not dirty enough for you

I'm so tired of hanging around
I pick up a guitar, spin a web of sounds
So tired - of hanging around
Just hanging around
Just hanging around
