In the Meantime
The Lickerish Quartet Lyrics

Hazel burn in your bright eyes
All we want is to stare down the white lies
So caught up being victims
They're on parade with clubs, knives and pistols
Stand aside, there's no where to hide
Wait and see, just what's meant to be
Unleashed in the A town
Here there be monsters come for the clampdown
They roll on through to the Main streets
Reds lights burn bright, we wave from the cheap seats Among the women and men who put their trust in you
The meek are the ones who'll carry this weight and inherit all you do
Where do we go in the meantime? When all of our love's by the wayside
Turning my cheek to the sunshine we go down without a fight
They say this one's got potential
What could be done might be instrumental
Your one hit wonder's familiar
All from a scream down to a whisper
I've been lazy, stuck in a haze of too much too late blues
And we are the ones created for things we never thought we'd do.
Where do we go in the meantime? We're watching the world in it's decline
Turning my cheek in the sunshine, we lay down without a fight
Where do we go in the meantime, while we're waiting out the foolish wisdom.
Between the mice and the minions, sink or swim they'd say
Choose your plight you've been trusted to face the tidal wave
There's a suffering sister whose sorrow seeds are sown
Overcome by the bluster of upper crusted drones
Who float above it all
Where do we go in the meantime, we watching the world in it's decline
Suffer the fools in the meantime, we go down without a fight
Where do we go in the meantime, and let our love show on the inside
Buried down deep in the meantime, we wait out the longest night
When you love someone, or do something, or have something to hope for
