Government test climate best
If you're looking for no rest
And at midnight you can grab your keys
And slip into your bulletproof dress
Television comes to life
And it works the street tonight
Siren's the song and it's remixed long
Into the broad daylight

Sleeping with the only one you can't out run
Gotta run before the sun catches up to me
Days they go too slow I'm blinded

CHORUS
Seein' only what I wanna see
In this enchanted land of a thousand chances
You only get just one and it's gone

Well I'm just another creep
In that town that never sleeps
Met the one I adore at a liquor store
And she gave up counting sheep
And she explained to me
What "waitress" really means
That most ignore what she's waiting for
While earning an honest keep
She's acting out tinsel town's most-hated scene

Gotta run before the sun catches up to me
Days they go too slow I'm blinded
Seein' only what I wanna see

CHORUS
In this enchanted land of a thousand chances
You only get just one and it's
Gone

Disenchanted in this land of a thousand chances
You only get just one and it's
Gone

(SMASH MOUTH TALKING & JOKING AROUND)

Stream-Of-Consciousness Reactions

What the hell? A musical? Took me awhile to get used to this song. I'm thinking "West Side Story" and for some reason "CATS." Very loungey. I imagine this song in Broadway. Or Las Vegas, where there's a lot of old people, smoke, and really old liquor. But there's a beatnik-type of sound to it. Very showtune-y.
