Vigilantes Of Love - 5 Miles Outside Monroe lyrics

Five miles outside of Monroe They say a man there just been k**ed Say you don't wanna talk about it Twenty dollars says you will I thought we made some progress Stayed up 'til the dawn I thought we made some progress Then again, I could be wrong Five miles outside of Monroe You're drumming your fingers on the dashboard Otis Redding's on the radio He's always so lonely at the dock of the bay I thought we made some progress With the advent of a kiss I thought we made some progress Then again, it was just a wish [Chorus] On and on, brick by brick Come and build my house While I try to get real good At putting words in people's mouths One day when the bottom drops out We'll lay this thing to rest The truth sleeping like dynamite Inside this paper flesh Phone calls have been placed Letters have been sent We've been trying to determine the exact nature of Your critical involvement Five miles outside of Monroe There's static on the dispatch "Freedom"...there's a holy word But there's a simple catch
