Snow dances on a TV screen
While a couples' in their bedroom being obscene
Their filthy sheets won't stay clean
And the band played on without me
A man's down on his knee holding up a ring
Begging an idea to be his queen
She can't say yes
Doesn't know what love means
And the band played on without me
A father's with a son driving in a car
He won't stop yelling
So they don't get far
Time's running out to heal this ugly scar
With daddy's lungs all blackened by tar
And the band played on without me
Flirty girls meet pretty boys
came together then lost their poise
They tossed them out like they were just toys
And the band played on. But it was just noise without me.
