Intro (Live from the Factory Theatre, Sydney) - The Modern Glitch

While the music played you worked by candlelight Those San Francisco nights You were the best in town Just by chance, you crossed the diamond with the pearl You turned it on the world That's when you turned the world around Did you feel like Jesus? Did you realize? That you were a champion in their eyes On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene But yours was kitchen clean Everyone stopped to stare at your Technicolor motor home Every a-frame had your number on the wall You must have had it all You'd go to L.A. on a dare and you'd go it alone Could you live forever? Could you see the day? Could you feel your whole world fall apart and fade away? Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Kid Charlemagne Now your patrons have all left you in the red Your low rent friends are dead This life can be very strange All those day glow freaks who used to paint the face They've joined the human race Some things will never change Son you were mistaken You are obsolete Look at all the white men on the street Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Kid Charlemagne Clean this mess up else, we'll all end up in jail Those test tubes and the scale Just get them all out of here Is there gas in the car? Yes, there's gas in the car I think the people down the hall, know who you are Careful what you carry 'Cause the man is wise You are still an outlaw in their eyes Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Kid Charlemagne Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Get along, get along Kid Charlemagne Get along

Oh today I'm just somebody else There's a better version on the shelf, oh oh And it stays there I'm not saying that I've worked it out It's just now I know that I'm lost beyond all doubt But I drink to that anyway We're gonna be okay Cause' we're flying Through our own mistakes Cause' I see you think about it And you're always in the crowd and Shit I'd love to hear your voice again And she's always on my mind There's things about her I find so strange Like an inability to cope with change, oh oh Lost in the middle again She's so far in-between two minds Obsessed with conversation and alibis There's no more compromise We're gonna be okay Cause' we're flying Through our own mistakes Cause' I see you think about it And you're always in the crowd and Shit I'd love to hear your voice again And she's always on my mind We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be oh We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be okay We're gonna be oh We're gonna be okay Cause' we're flying Through our own mistakes Cause' I see you think about it And you're always in the crowd and Shit I'd love to hear your voice again And she's always on my mind

At times it feels like I'm just wasting Away and I just don't feel the same As I was the other day It's like I'm just watching, waiting For some things I know will never come I'll put it on again Does your mind often wonder About some things that just can't be unsaid And how you're gonna pay Typically you don't work it out Until its just far, far, far too late I was lying anyway We were just fighting for our promise Don't ever let me down Don't ever let me down We were just fighting for our promise Don't ever let me down Don't ever let me down Oh how the hell can we stand this When everything has just become undone And I am not afraid And when I see you in the future I hope by then that we will be okay I was lying anyway We were just fighting for our promise Don't ever let me down Don't ever let me down We were just fighting for our promise Don't ever let me down Don't ever let me down
