Counterclockwise (Live)
Bought a poncho and sandals I threw away my shoes Brought a toothbrush and a razor I probably won't use Hit the track, turn my back on the Headlines News On my way to meet the moon on the bay Where she's risin' big and full and blue
Well the gringo boys got their dark sunglasses And the girls on the beach are all shakin' their fingers 'Cause no matter how dark the lenses They can see that the eyes and the minds of the boys are somewhere they ain't supposed to be
The breeze is blowin' me a new perfume It's givin' my heart a little elbow room And the kids are lightin' firecrackers Boom! Boom! Boom!
the kids are lightin' firecrackers Boom! Boom! Boom! No one recalls when the clock on the wall stopped wavin' its hands all day
Maybe it died of loneliness or boredom Rest in peace, you know it's better this way The breeze is blowin' me a new perfume It's givin' my heart a little elbow room
And the kids are lightin' firecrackers Boom! Boom! Boom! Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com the kids are lightin' firecrackers Boom! Boom! Boom! And all my friends are laughin'
at each other's lies And the sea is singin' lullabies And everything's slowin' down flowin' counterclockwise everything's slowin' down flowin' counterclockwise
Some of the Americans are ugly Americans But we know we ain't all that way So we nod and we smile and we wait a little while
Because they never stay anywhere very long anyway The breeze is blowin' me a new perfume It's givin' my heart a little elbow room And the kids are lightin' firecrackers Boom! Boom! Boom! the kids are lightin' firecrackers Boom! Boom! Boom! And all my friends are laughin' at each other's lies And the sea is singin' lullabies And everythin's slowin' down flowin' counterclockwise everythin's slowin' down flowin' counterclockwise
