lyrics

like a house of cards
our love once fell
on the battlefield of hope

and in the ruins
of our lives
we tried, and we cried

o, lover boy
what do you say
we'll get some drinks at the bar

where Gertrude Stein
and Hemingway
had that famous fight?

what side are you on?
what side am i on?
what is your signature style?

will you ware black?
or will you ware white?
will we laugh or cry tonight?

Saturday comes and
Saturday goes
Sunday, Monday

Tuesday, Wednesday
that's how it goes
thats how it goes

cars in the snow
planes in the sky
images come and go

but this old world
gives me a turn
..its my turn

and i said,
o, lover boy
what do you say
we'll get good and drunk at the bar

where Gertrude Stein
and Hemingway
had that famous fight
