The War Is Over / Omissions of the Omen

Lyrics

A man once told me that life was like a collage
 he said there's nothing much to spies like us
 just killing time, that's all
 and there are spacecraft orbiting the earth
 guided by 90 year old russians that haven't heard
 the war is over, how do you feel
 and how have you been baby
 well she got married and she had kids
 and they sear sex and not the bomb
 and the rest is just ad libbed
 and me I'm waiting for something
 that does not come
 for something to crack
 for something to go wrong
 I'm inside out and I'd say
 This is where we get off
 this is where we do anything we want
 and this is where I amuse you
 A man once told me that life was lke a collage
 he said the truth is not radio friendly espionage
 the war is over, how do you feel
 and where have you been baby
 well we got stuck and we got lost
 between good-bye and the chemical sky
 and a nuclear albatross
 when I sleep, I see rain
 when I'm alone, I am in pain
 and everything is not the same
 as on the big screen
 I'm inside out and I'd say
 this is where we get off
 Wait for me if i don't show up
 take from me this hypocrits cup
 and someone to run the world
 someone would love to have my first world problems
 kill the moon and turn out the sun
 lock your door and load your gun
 free at last now the time has come to choose
 Man makes god so god can make man
 man makes the devil so that he can understand
 why it is that every day,
 everything always turns out this way
 you and me we were never here
 you and me we were not that clear
 you and me we died a long, long time ago
 Don't think just come along
 do believe that it won't belong
 everything's open all night and all day anyway
 build me a ship of wood and steel
 bring me a net and fishing reel
 sail me to the place where I can find my brother
 safe and sound
 wait for me if I don't show up
 take from me this hypocrits cup
 and kill the moon and turn out the sun
 omissions of the omen
