lyrics

DRAW THE LINE
(Max Décharné)

Well I wrote myself a letter
it got sent back labelled nobody home
I’m always living in the past
cause it’s cheaper
and you don’t need a phone
Tell me baby
where did it all go right?
They never marked it on the map
but you can see it when you
turn out the light

Well they called me on the phone and said
now listen
cause this won't take long
you’re surplus to requirements
and you're broken
and you should be gone
Clear out your rubbish
we don’t wanna give you severance pay
Thank you for your loyal service
can you just go away

All the world’s a stage
I'm going through
all I want right now
well you know it’s you
Hang out your stethoscope
and listen and I’ll sing you a song
with too many verses
and this chorus cause it came out wrong
well alright now

All the world’s a stage
I'm going through
all I want right now
well you know it’s you
I can see the way you look
and I can tell you
that you look just fine
I could draw you in a picture
if I knew just where to draw the line

Beam me up Scotty
cause I’m tired and I wanna go home
don’t get snotty with me
it’s not the fall of Rome
and we all live
in a leaking submarine
we all wanted
something that's never been

All the world’s a stage
I’m going through
all I want right now
well you know it’s you
I know the way you look
and I can tell you
that you look just fine
I could draw you in a picture
if I knew just where to draw the line
yeah I could draw you in a picture
but I don’t know where to draw the line
