I want to know
I want to know
I want to know
That every night a million families sit down
Eat their dinner around those tables
(TV, places laid, fathers there)
And I want to know even if this bus stops
Doesn't go
For any reason
Behind is another number twelve
(Right, no more than five standing downstairs)
I need to know
Between us desperate two
There is that unspoken hot and illusory
No, don't say we rely, we rely don't we?
I don’t need to know
I want to feel
I want to feel
The billboards do paint
That having beans for tea means
Behind those doors
(rows of streets, lines of plates)
I want to know
I want to know
That every night a million families sit down
Eat their dinner around those tables
(TV, places laid, fathers there)
And I want to know even if this bus stops
Doesn't go
For any reason
Behind is another number twelve
(Right, no more than five standing downstairs)
I need to know
Between us desperate two
There is that unspoken hot and illusory
No, don't say we rely, we rely don't we?
I don’t need to know
I want to feel
I want to feel
The billboards do paint
That having beans for tea means
Behind those doors
(rows of streets, lines of plates)
