Under a Covered Sky

by The Donefors

on Angles (2011), Lush Life Below the Poverty Line (2013)

Meet me on the corner with a flask of see-what-happens
Be there on the money with all the weapons ready
You can be the lookout I will be the heavy
Meet me on the corner with a flask of see-what-happens

The news boys are waiting for the worst to happen
(Seen it before)
They're salivating for the next disaster
(Dogs by the door)
Just think about how well-fed the vultures will be
(It's never enough)
Meet me on the corner with a flask of see-what-happens

Under a covered sky
Send off the birds in flight
Wait for a signal light to burn through
I've got a steady hand
Waiting for your command
Under covered skies I'll cover you

Meet me on the corner under the broken street light
(I'm scared to go)
Be there on the money before the red moon rises
(I just don't know)
You can be the watcher I will be the runner
(What if we fail?)
Meet me on the corner with a flash off see-what-happens

Under a covered sky
Send off the birds in flight
Wait for a signal light to burn through
I've got a steady hand
Waiting for your command
Under covered skies I'll cover you

Here it comes like a bomb in your backyard
Everyone duck and run through the boulevard
Lie in wait, breath-bated in a Trojan horse
All the old folks watch the neighbourhood from the front porch

Fall down fall down fall down
Roll down roll down roll down
