Telethon Lyrics - Emily Haines

When I'm on will you leave me on? 

When I'm on will you leave me on? 

And when I'm down will you let me get under? 

Take cover, can't hide without a house 

Newspapers blow over 

Can't walk past the driveway without asking for direction 

So full of stupid questions 

When the daylight's like fluorescent light 

I'm gonna take my time night by night 

When the daylight's like fluorescent light 

I hang my hands over your eyes to hide 

When I'm on will you rescue me? 

I watch that telethon 

Got hung up on the word, I can't get it over 

Soldier 

When she says nothing is enough 

She doesn't mean, don't try to fix it 

Make plans with your other hand 

Dream without concession 

When the daylight's like fluorescent light 

I'm gonna take my time night by night 

When the daylight's like fluorescent light 

I hang my hands over your eyes 

I hang my hands over your eyes to hide 

Bruised Billy Joel, "New York State Of Mind" 

Bruised Billy Joel, "New York State Of Mind" 

Bruised Billy Joel, "New York State Of Mind" 

Take cover, take pleasure
