The Streets - Lock the Locks lyrics

I had a funny dream and I came to screaming That I was in a funny house but it was kind of mine And I was with you, only it wasn't you It happened in the past but it was somehow now It put it into focus, things became clear I had to plan something, I handed in my notice Even though to most it looked random My heart had left, I was just going in tandem (I smoked one too many cigarettes I heard one too many lies And I've gambled on too many bets I lost it all too this life) I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (To this life) Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave I'll leave one evening be seen off At a party for my parting in a bar It starts on the early side and ends in a gutter With a fumble with a colleague in a car No more alarm that barks in the dark With the beeping like darts to the heart Yes, the maze it does look deep And days are over for dozing on my cheek (I smoked one too many cigarettes I heard one too many lies And I've gambled on too many bets I lost it all too this life) I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (To this life) Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave Read the funny card signed by all That was purchased by the person I will always recall Lock away my labors, steel stationary A kiss on the lips or a grin in a grip I had a funny dream and I came to screaming That I was in a funny house but it was kind of mine And I was with you, only it wasn't you It happened in the past but it was somehow now I came to it noon through the tune of a spoon In a mug in a room, but I knew very soon That the mug in the room, was the mug yours truly? Because I never stood up for what I wanted to do (I smoked one too many cigarettes I heard one too many lies And I've gambled on too many bets I lost it all too this life) I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (To this life) Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave (I smoked one too many cigarettes I heard one too many lies And I've gambled on too many bets I lost it all too this... I smoked one too many cigarettes I heard one too many lies And I've gambled on too many bets I lost it all too this life) I'm packing up my desk I've put it into boxes (To this life) Knock out the lights, lock the locks and leave (To this life)
