The Killers

Smile Like You Mean It

Save some face you know you've only got one,
Change your ways... while your young,
Boy! One day you'll be a man,
Girl... he'll help you understand,
Smile like you mean it...
Smile like you mean it...

All Theses Things I've Done

When there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
One more son
If you can hold on
If you can hold on, hold on
I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes

I need direction to perfection,

On Top
But I've been down across a road or two,
But now I've found the velvet sun,
That shines on me and you,

It's like a cigarette in the mouth
Or a handshake in the doorway
I look at you and smile because I'm fine

Change Your Mind
Racey days
Help me through the hopeless haze
But my oh my
Tragic eyes
I can't even recognize myself behind
So if the answer is no
Can I change your mind

Out again, a siren screams at half past ten
And you won't let go
While I ignore, that we both felt like this
Before it starts to show

So if I had a chance
Would you let me know

Why aren't you shaking
Step back in time
Graciously taken
Oh you're too kind

Midnight Show
If you can keep a secret
I got a blanket in the back seat of my mind
And a little place that sits beneath the sky
She turned her face to speak
But no-one heard her cry
Drive faster, boy
Drive faster, boy

I know there's a hope
There's too many people trying to help me cope

You got a real short skirt
I wanna look up, look up, look up, yeah yeah


We were just in time
Let me take a little more off your mind
There's something in my head
Somewhere in the back said
We were just a good thing
We were such a good thing

Make it go away without a word
But promise me you'll stay
And fix these things I've hurt

Oh make it go away!
