When We Start To Sing

歌詞

Barking and grunting and shouting like fools In stairwells and bathrooms and dry swimming pools Places where reverb resounds with a ring Why do the cops come when we start to sing? At the party we were wailing It was getting late and we were getting pretty pissed We hit a chord and how it buzzed It felt as good as being kissed The four of us have a group But we're not always a hit Sometimes the guests aren't too impressed The ask us "please" won't you quit all that Barking and grunting and shouting like fools In stairwells and bathrooms and dry swimming pools Places where reverb resounds with a ring Why do the cops come when we start to sing? We took ourselves out to the parking lot And tried to find that sweet sound again "Cut out that noise" the next door neighbor yelled As he turned his stereo up to ten There's a place for us Somewhere where we'll find our sound An empty church with a holy echo Or a subway tunnel underground, we'll be Barking and grunting and shouting like fools In stairwells and bathrooms and dry swimming pools Places where reverb resounds with a ring Why do the cops come when we start to sing? At four in the morning if your window's open We'll be crooning in your dreams Searching for chords and moaning the blues Sorry if it sounds like screams Barking and grunting and shouting like fools In stairwells and bathrooms and dry swimming pools Places where reverb resounds with a ring Why do the cops come when we start to sing
