Totally wired and the game is up

Im under the table

You carry my heart in the palm of your hand

As the clouds roll in

the party was rained out

Open up to find a man made home

And by four oclock when the sun came out

We were beside ourselves

Taking the rest of the day off

Lying out the back

Slung in a hammock

Gathering reams of space and time

Two eyes that surrender

The call might come

Fire my anger and spoil the whole thing

Its not much fun when the pressures on

And your luck has gone

But you squeeze my hand

Were taking the rest of the day off

We like to climb the rock

Before we have lunch

And well turn our backs on the whole damn bunch



You find the answer walking the dog

Down the south of Piha

its over and done

Not a lot to say when the man calls up

The line goes dead and youre yesterdays news

I couldnt care less now Im here with you

Were the only ones left and were flat on our backs

Taking the rest of the day off

And you find it dont add up to much

When youre wrapped in a blanket of stars

With the one you love

Like two shiny dogs

With the one you love
