lyrics

It all went up I knew it would
The beach was black my house on fire
I would not miss it anyway
You'd wired it up like a timebomb
Wired it up like a timebomb

So I got up and packaged flat
Left all the precious things to urn
They did not mean a thing to me
You'd wired it up like a timebomb
Wired it up like a timebomb

In twenty years of afternoons
An overdose of everyday
She left in haste for something else
All wired up like a timebomb
All wired up like a timebomb

Would have cut it anyway
But now's as good as any time
The finest thread that ever held
All wired up like a timebomb
All wired up like a timebomb

Our lives are wired
Like our gardenias
Our lives are wired
Our lives are wired
Like our gardenias

When all the rest of it was gone
And I was left and scared to death
But would not wish another way
All wired up like a timebomb
All wired up like a timebomb
