Could have been shot by this one though it might've been mine
   should've been left by the rest stop if you had been kind
   'cause i've got a funny way of feeling
   and feeling you wasn't right
   there's nothing left to believe in
   so believe in me this time
   the senator said as he called his blushing bride
   oh his bride
  
   but why hold steady
   when tomorrow's always turning out bad
   and why hold steady
   when the future's in the walls but the malls are coming back
   coming back
  
   should've been called to rescue down at morgan dell
   could've been left by the pumphouse if you had been well
   but all this was there in the sand dunes
   so set it up and let them ride
   you got dressed up too soon now you're starting to feel alright
   if you can't be great you might as well be bright
   oh be bright
  
   but why hold steady
   when tomorrow's always turning out bad
   why hold steady
   when the future's in the walls but the malls are coming back
   coming back
  
   and you're making the eyes
   and you're making the eyes all wooden
  
   and why hold steady
   when tomorrow's always turning out bad
   why hold steady
   when the future's in the walls but the malls are coming back
   coming back
