We got everything we asked for
and the host had gone to bed
and the ringing in our ears was the last thing that he said.

And we throw it all away
and it’s raining from above
and I raise an empty glass to everyone I ever loved

At the daylight saving celebration vanity fair.

And you blame the bastard child
and you blame your fickle friends
and you blame the Easter mornings for how good things always end

So won’t you celebrate me now?
I have all the things I need
and I’ve nothing left to give you so to you I bid godspeed

At the daylight saving celebration vanity fair.
