No Flag

Lyrics

I've got no religion, I've got no philosophy
 Got a head full of ideas and words that don't seem to belong to me
 You may be joking but I don't get the gag
 I sense the future but time seems to drag
 No time for this kind of love
 No flag waving high above
 No sign for the dark place that I live
 No God for the damn that I don't give
 ♪
 I've got no illusions, I've had no epiphany
 Why should anybody listen to me
 She said, "I'm tearing up the sheets that your love letters stained"
 "All of your magic powers have drained"
 No time for this kind of love
 No flag waving high above
 No sign for the dark place that I live
 No God for the damn that I don't give
 ♪
 Here's a line in the sand, a word or two in the aftermath
 I'm an arrow that shoots up and down on an advertising graph
 I could write you verses and recite more than one
 But they're not worth the paper that they're written on
 No time for this kind of love
 No flag waving high above
 No sign for the dark place that I live
 No God for the damn that I don't give
 ♪
 We want everything and we don't want to share
 Outer space for the faces we fear
 Look in them go and see who I used to be
 Made out of plastic in a factory
 No flag
 ♪
 No flag
