lyrics

when i was a radio
gliding through slate skies at dawn,
reception was marginal
but i still sang along

while you clung to your balcony
and tried not to drown
you called in an s.o.s.,
and i turned around

you were spitting out fiberglass
still hot from the blaze
afraid that your fire escape
would smolder for days

don't part it out, take it all
don't part it out, take it all

that's efficiency. to me
