The sun is playing hide and seek
Blind shadows on the wall
The clothesline sags, the clothes won't dry
They're dripping wet outdoors
The thaw is just beginning
The anti-freeze is gone
The car's a statue monument
To yesterday gone wrong
And here in this museum
No curios are found
So I guess I'll hang around
For the meltdown

One time you came round here
I couldn't take the heat
It was so hot, it felt like ice
The place where those two meet
And then the whole room froze right up
We wrapped up warm at night
A little loving glance previewed
The dimming of the light
And now it's dark and empty
Full of the nothing but the sound
Of someone listening
For the meltdown

The weather don't mean anything
Ask the weatherman now he's in Sing-Sing
The pathetic lies of false untruths
Are sliding down the tiles that are sliding down the roof

Tears fall from the eyelids of
Two shoes stepped round the back
Shed for melting hearts
The melting starts my heart attack
That feeling's in the air again
Who is it loves the sun?
When sometime there's no one left
For it to shine upon
You shout into the bedroom
"I think we're going to drown"
But I think we should keep it quiet
Till the meltdown
