Life During Wartime (Ao Vivo)

Heard of a van that is leaded with weapons

Packed up and ready to go

Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway

A place where nobody knows

The sound of gunfire, off in the distance

I'm getting used to it now

Lived in Brownstone, lived in the Ghetto

I've lived all over this town

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco

This ain't no fooling around

No time for dancing, or lovey dovey

I ain't got time for that now

Transmit the message to the receiver

Hope for an answer someday

I got three passports, a couple of visas

You don't even know my real name

High on a hillside the trucks are loading

Everything's ready to roll

Sleep in the daytime, work in nighttime

I might not ever get home

This ain't no party, this ain't no dico, this ain't no fooling

Around

This ain't the Mudd Club, or CBGB

I ain't got time for tha now

Heard about Houston?

Heard about Detroit?

Heard about Pittsburgh, P.A.?

You've got to learn not to stand by the window

Somebody see you up there

I've go some groveries

Some peanut butter

To last couple of days

But I ain't got no speakers

Ain't got no headphones

Ain't got no records to play

Why go to college, to highschool?

It will be different this time

Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard

I can write nothing at all

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco

This ain't no fooling around

I'd like to kiss you, I'd love to fuck you

I ain't got time for that now
