  • "So, what would you little maniacs like to do first?"

    Watching through my fingers
    Watching through my fingers

    Shuts my eyes and count to ten
    It goes in one ear out the other, oh
    One ear out the other, oh
    Burning bright right 'til the end
    Now you'll be missing from the photographs
    Missing from the photographs

    Watching through my fingers
    Watching through my fingers

    In my thoughts you're far away
    And you are whistling a melody
    Whistling a melody
    Crystallizing clear as day
    Oh, I can picture you so easily
    Picture you so easily

    What's gonna be left of the world if you're not in it?
    What's gonna be left of the world? Oh

    Every minute and every hour
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
    Every stumble and each misfire
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

    Watching through my fingers
    Watching through my fingers

    Caught off guard by your favorite song
    I'll be dancing at a funeral
    Dancing at a funeral
    Sleeping in the clothes you love
    It's such a shame we have to see them burn
    Shame we have to see them burn

    What's gonna be left of the world if you're not in it?
    What's gonna be left of the world? Oh

    Every minute and every hour
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
    Every stumble and each misfire
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

    "If you want to be a party animal, you have to learn to live in the jungle
    Now stop worrying and go get dressed"

    You might have to excuse me
    I've lost control of all of my senses
    And you might have to excuse me
    I've lost control of all of my words
    So get drunk, call me a fool
    Put me in my place, put me in my place
    Pick me up, up off the floor
    Put me in my place, put me in my place

    Every minute and every hour
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
    Every stumble and each misfire
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more

    Watching through my fingers
    Watching through my fingers

    'Cause every minute and every hour
    I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more Writer/s: Daniel Campbell Smith, Mark Blair Crew
