NO MAN'S LAND

There's a fool in the room
And it's not you
There's a steal of a deal
But it's too good to be true
Now the sun's going down
And the sky's changing hue
There's a lie on your lips
You know it's true

There's a car up the road
Driving slow
As the fog's rolling in down below
There's a boat on the sea
That I’m too tired to row
There's an orange looking moon hanging low

Here in no man's land
Sign on the dotted line
Then shake my hand
You'll soon be feeling fine
I understand
It's hard here in no man's land

Long ago there were ponies on that hill
If I could I would be riding up there still
When you milk your sacred cow
Does your bucket get filled?
If you want something that bad
Pay the bill

The organ grinder's monkey's out of work
The peer pressure made him go berserk
You can never be too sure about where the demons lurk
Sometimes the best of men can't help but be a jerk

Here in no man's land
Sign on the dotted line
Then shake my hand
You'll soon be feeling fine
I understand
It's hard here in no man's land

I threw caution to the wind and it blew away
I chased it for nine hours and a day
Nobody here knows what it looks like anyway
Don't ask me what the hero's gonna say

Here in no man's land
Sign on the dotted line
Then shake my hand
You'll soon be feelin' fine
Yes I understand
It's hard here in no man's land
