Well, we're waiting for the midnight phone call
To tell us if it's gonna be okay
If it's not okay, then who can we turn to?
If it's not okay, then who can we trust?
Well, there's no good reason to settle this on him
Well, if those aren't fighting words then I don't know who I hit.

Who do we care for? Who do we make our friends?
Who do we turn to? Who do we make our friends?

Keep your eye on the burning car,
Keep your ear to the street
If the fire should burn through the basement
Oh, I will feel the heat!
Well, there's no more smoke in the backyard
No more smoke on the glass
But oh, the fire, oh.
