Killermont Street Lyrics - Fountains Of Wayne

As the city asleep 

Shares its dreams and desires 

Every wish that we keep 

Will trace a line to other times, other places 

Though the song of the proud 

Howls and dies, never fall for defeat 

Take a trip to reprieve every hour they leave 

From Killermont Street 

Drink a drink to before 

And our memories spill 

Adding on as they pour 

From our Saturdays and secret sensations 

Drink a drink to tonight 

Whiskey words tumble down in the street 

With the pain that they cure, sentimentally yours 

From Killermont Street 

And with collar upturned 

I made it south to see 

That the love I had spurned 

Was just the hate in me 

As the ships and the steel 

Slip away to the cry of compete 

There's a message for us, we can get there by bus 

From Killermont Street 

There's a message for us, we can get there by bus 

From Killermont Street
