It´s my father´s voice trailing off Sailors sailing off in the morning For the air-conditioned rooms At the top of the stairs
His jaw´s been broken His bandage is wrapped too tight His fangs have been pulled And I really want to see you tonight
There´s bourbon on the breath Of the singer you love so much He takes all his words from the books That you don´t read anyway
His jaw´s been broken His bandage is wrapped too tight His fangs have been pulled And I really want to see you tonight
Someone ties a bow In my backyard to show me love My voice is climbing walls Smoking and I wanted love
My jaw´s been broken My heart is wrapped in ice My fangs have been pulled And I really want to see you tonight
And it makes no difference to me How they cried all over overseas When it´s hot in the poor places tonight I´m not going outside
They cried all over overseas It makes no difference to me When it´s hot in the poor places tonight I´m not going outside ("Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot") It´s hot in the poor places tonight ("Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot") I´m not going outside ("Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot") I´m not going outside ("Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot") I´m not going outside
