first class blackout

now the future slams right into the past with the outline of your shoe
across my back
hello freedom at last

it was a one-knock knock down
I would've liked to congratulate
it was a first class blackout
and I will not be back
I will not be back

all you buzzards hiding behind the rocks watching my eyes
for signs I'm getting soft
it's my gain, your loss

it was a one-knock knock down
I would've liked to congratulate
it was a first class blackout
and I will not be back
I will not be back

it's time to get this shack in order
it's been too long
I thought that things would fall together but I was wrong
I was wrong

when every handshake sticks together like glue something tells me
it's too good to be true
every time I look at you

it was a one-knock knock down
I would've liked to congratulate
it was a first class blackout
and I will not be back
I will not be back ...
