Here To Stay

I've been watching the fans rotate

I've been watching the leaflets turn

I've been watching the plants, even though they're fake.

And I've been thinking about the things I'll never learn.



I've been watching the stones below

I've been watching the moves they make

I've been watching the faces that they'll never know.

And I've been thinking about what could be at stake.



So who in the hell got up and rerung the bell

And tell me who am I fighting for?

Or give me a hand, because I really can't stand anymore

And I'm bored, but I'm here to stay.

I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay.



I've been watching the insects work

I've been watching the lion sleep

I've been watching the redemption of Captain Kirk.



And I've been thinking about how they can't make me weep;

Not for free.



So who in the hell got up and rerung the bell

And tell me who am I fighting for?

Or give me a hand, because I really can't stand anymore

And I'm bored, but I'm here to stay.

I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay.



I'm here to stay

(Who in the hell got up and rerung the bell)

I'm here to stay

(And tell me who am I fighting for?)

I'm here to stay

(Or give me a hand, because I really can't stand anymore)

I'm here to stay

(And I'm bored)

I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay.

I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay, I'm here to stay.
