Billy (The Vapors)

Billy was a landmine to his friends He would never get excited to the end You could see him in the corner there all alone And if you see him the street he says his on his way home But he don't go home He's got his books to read He's got his life to lead at night We've been sitting round the tables far too long And we've been making out that their was nothing wrong Time is nothing when there's nothing left to say And time goes slower when you're silent all the day But he don't go home He's got it all sown up He's got his life to lead at night He's forever on crossbars cycling home so his mama don't know Billy's been bending some of their rules at the Saturday show Come on Billy Billy was a landmine to his friends He would never get excited to the end He built a city in his head and went and lived up there too A man who knows made him an inmate in an urban zoo But he don't go home He's got it all sown up He's got his life to lead at night Don't ever change Not even for a little while Don't ever change I love you just the way you are I don't understand I've never done a thing for you Don't ever change Don't ever stop to ask me too Don't ask me too
