The Ticks Songtext
von Convenience Store

I need a love to score the silence
Cos it′s getting oh-so loud
Someone to drown this island
And clean its sorry ground
I wanna say there was no worry
Cos I never made a show
But it's been the same for ages
Though I guess you′ve always known


I can't, I can't
Shake the ticks
I can′t, I can′t
Shake the ticks
I can't, I can′t
Shake the ticks
I can't, I can′t
Can't can′t can't can't can′t

The soundless song, the father gone
The gold′s been sold, but the swill goes on
Every waitress, you fall in love
Follows their wages, like anyone

I can't, I can′t
Shake the ticks
I can't, I can′t
Shake the ticks
I can't, I can′t
Shake the ticks
I can't, I can't
