Ted Leo And The Pharmacists - Counting Down The Hours Lyrics

Send "Counting Down The Hours" ringtone to your cell

Innocence it don't come easy in a sense it never will

Accidents mean no one's guilty ignorance means someone's killed

So i asked our mr. mellor how to get to where one's going

And he points to his survival and he points me down the road

And i go on wondering if i've got a soul

And counting down the hours 'til it goes

On a dark wet night in april on a street in jersey where

I went looking for some writing that i knew would not be there

And a punter from the pelhams and the police in the rain

Were concerned more with a car than with the fact the light had changed

But after listening all morning as i drove down 95

To a story of detainees who were barely kept alive

I could deal with trying to process pigeons acting like they're doves

But not with interference from the power lines above

And i go on wondering if i've got a soul

And counting down the hours 'til it goes

Oh precautions yes precautions

But if you're playing with a gun you could kill someone

And in the dark it's hard to know a friend

But i'm not angry i won't be forever angry

As i'm walking toward tomorrow with a rifle in my hand

And i'm thinking about new england but i'm missing old japan

And a mountain in california where a spring runs hot and cold

And if i told you i felt ageless would you tell me i'm not old?

And i go on wondering if i've got a soul

And counting down the hours 'til it goes
