So the soldiers soak up all the sun And the company is continually struck dumb Now everyone wonders where we're from While the level-headed are heading for their homes Way before they come All I know is I'm never gonna go The safe way home So here's a clue for all you new boy destroyers Never ever think about granting us piece But please relieve the clarity and forget them Before our loyal own start moaning like children Before their uniformed brethren Send them to heaven All I know is I'm never gonna go The safe way home Quality time with the unkind is better than being alone It's all I know Why does every evening have to end this way Huddled in a bundle in a dark dark doorway Freezing please baby throw down some keys Let this kitten in Meow it's me All I know is I'm never gonna go The safe way home Quality time with the unkind is better than being alone It's all I know Why does every evening have to end this way Why oh why does every evening have to end
