lyrics

Hey there Mister Golden Ears
I heard that you found love
Tossed down in the gutter
Like some holey worn-out glove
All that time you heard it clapping
Waiting there for you
You picked it up and tried it on
And prayed that you'd find two

No one could go home
No one could go home

Hey there Mister Golden Ears
I heard that you sought love
I'm sure you'll find it louder
Than the thunderbolts above
Shakes like dolby stereo
In glorious surround
But just for you
It's mono too
It's every kinda sound

Hey there Mister Golden Ears
The sirens of this town
Still sing in drunken revelry
While heading west on Crown
Up to the bridge of Jubilee
From downtown near McCabe
Overturning every garbage bin
And waking every babe

And when your little party got old tonight
I wouldn't let you turn on that light
No one could go home
No one could go home
