[Verse 1]
I picked the morning paper off the floor
It was full of other people's little wars
Wouldn't they like their peace, don't we get bored?
[Chorus]
And we call for the three great stimulants
Of the exhausted ones
Artifice, brutality and innocence
Artifice and innocence
[Verse 2]
No tanks have ever rumbled through these streets
And the drone of planes at night has never frightened me
I keep the hours and the company that I please
[Chorus]
And we call for the three great stimulants
Of the exhausted ones
Artifice, brutality and innocence
Artifice and innocence
[Bridge]
Oh and deep in the night our appetites find us
Release us and blind us deep in the night
While madmen sit up building bombs and making laws and bars
They'd like to slam free choice behind us
I picked the morning paper off the floor
It was full of other people's little wars
Wouldn't they like their peace, don't we get bored?
[Chorus]
And we call for the three great stimulants
Of the exhausted ones
Artifice, brutality and innocence
Artifice and innocence
[Verse 2]
No tanks have ever rumbled through these streets
And the drone of planes at night has never frightened me
I keep the hours and the company that I please
[Chorus]
And we call for the three great stimulants
Of the exhausted ones
Artifice, brutality and innocence
Artifice and innocence
[Bridge]
Oh and deep in the night our appetites find us
Release us and blind us deep in the night
While madmen sit up building bombs and making laws and bars
They'd like to slam free choice behind us
