Calm Before the Storm

Sat outside my front window
This story′s going somewhere
He’s well hung and I am hanging up
There′s a song on the radio that says
“Let’s get this party started”
Let’s get this party started!

What you do on your own time′s just fine
My imagination′s much worse
I just never wanna know
What meant the world imploded
Faded and demoted all my oxygen to product gas
Suffocated my last chance
You said, between your smiles and regrets
“Don’t say it′s over”
Dead and gone, dead and gone

Calm before the storm
Set it off
And the sun burnt out tonight
Reception less than warm
Set it off
And the sun burnt out tonight

The next time the phone can wring my neck
It gets no answer
And the time that I’ve spent turning in my roots
I′m shaking in my boots
But still it looks at me like an old friend I’ve betrayed
The dark side of the doormat is the one your shoes have frayed

What you do on your own time′s just fine
My imagination’s much worse
I just never wanna know (I just never want to know)
What meant the world imploded
Faded and demoted all my oxygen to product gas
Suffocated my last chance
You said, between your smiles and regrets
“Don’t say it′s over”
Dead and gone, dead and gone

Calm before the storm
Set it off
And the sun burnt out tonight
Reception less than warm
Set it off
And the sun burn out tonight

(Woo!)
chorus
Calm before the storm
Set it off
And the sun burnt out tonight
Reception less than warm
Set it off

And the sun burnt out tonight (whoa)
Tonight
The sun burnt out (whoa)
The sun burnt out tonight (whoa)
(Whoa)
The sun burnt out tonight
