Out the Window Songtext
von Violent Femmes

Life was fun, life was great
′Til I made my big mistake
Oh no, it'll never happen to me

Life was short and life was sweet
I was thinking as I hit the street
I could hardly believe, I could scarcely conceive
But I had gone out the window

I had gone out the window
I had gone out the window

Oh, she was fine, she looked great
And so we made our big mistake
I swear, I swear, it′d never, never happen to her

But the pavement knocked her head around
When she hit the solid concrete ground
From 30 flights above and she was 30 something loving nothing
Gone out the window

She had gone out the window
She had gone out the window


Oh, catch me if I'm falling
Catch me if I'm calling

He was smart he was wise
He′d profoundly philosophize
Empathy for humanity

One day by an open window
There′s a note that read
"I've gone out the window, I′m dead"
He said yes to life for all of his life

But then one day he said, "No
I gotta go out the window"

Here I go out the window
Here I go out the window

Oh, catch me I am falling
Catch me I am calling
Catch me I am falling
Catch me I am calling

Go out the window
We all go out the window
We all go out the window
We all go out the window


Go out the window
We all go out the window
We all go out the window
We all go out the window

Catch me, we are falling (go out the window, we all go out the window)
Catch me, we are calling (we all go out the window, we all go out the window)
Catch me, we are falling (go out the window, we all go out the window)
Catch me, we are calling (we all go out the window, we all go out the window)
