Something happened today
In the Milky Way
Someone said, "Why behave?
This is not a love song"
Someone said, "Why behave?
This is complicated"
They didn't want to wash away
In the Milky Way

The kids were dancing in the parking lot
At the old folks' hospital
There were roses there
Artificial
They were planted there
Woah-oah-oah
They were drinking all night at the square
They were pictured naked all the way home

They set fire to the rescue dock
At the front of the establishment
And she filled the air
And they breathed her in
If the smoke remained
They could swim and never drown again

They said "Why do we wait?"
They said "Why do we wait?"
Until our skeletons break
Until our skeletons break

When our ghosts are probably dancing
On top of our graves
On top of our graves
