This Place Is a Prison(Live) - The Postal Service

作词：Benjamin Gibbard/Jimmy Tamborello

作曲：Benjamin Gibbard/Jimmy Tamborello

This place is a prison

And these people aren't your friends

Inhaling thrills through 20 dollar bills

And the tumblers are drained and then flooded again and again

There's guards at the on ramps armed to the teeth

And you may case the grounds

From the cascades to puget sound

But you are not permitted to leave

I know there's a big world out there

Like the one that I saw on the screen

In my living room late last night

It was almost too bright to see

I know that it's not a party

If it happens every night

Pretending there's glamor and candelabra

When you're drinking by candlelight

What does it take to get a drink in this place

What does it take how long must I wait

What does it take to get a drink in this place

What does it take how long must I wait

How long must I wait
