My Brother Works for the CIA by Trampled by Turtles Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm still looking out your window, your shady tones of home
Where dusty memories echo down like rain
And the years grow ever longer, the days go flying by
But I can't wait 'til you and I are finally home again
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
[Verse 2]
When comfort comforts no one, surrounded by your name
There is no one that I can talk to now
And this town is a painting and I am but a dream
So come live me outside the lonely fields of midnight May
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
[Verse 3]
And when the nighttime tricks me to believin' I'm the same
As every barstool in this goddamn place
You come put your arms around me, slowly say my name
So come live with me outside the lonely fields of midnight May
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
I'm still looking out your window, your shady tones of home
Where dusty memories echo down like rain
And the years grow ever longer, the days go flying by
But I can't wait 'til you and I are finally home again
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
[Verse 2]
When comfort comforts no one, surrounded by your name
There is no one that I can talk to now
And this town is a painting and I am but a dream
So come live me outside the lonely fields of midnight May
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
[Verse 3]
And when the nighttime tricks me to believin' I'm the same
As every barstool in this goddamn place
You come put your arms around me, slowly say my name
So come live with me outside the lonely fields of midnight May
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
[Chorus]
Well there ain't no easy answers when the circus is in town
Troubled juries hang each other dead
And the TV's filled with poets who only write in rhyme
And my brother works for the CIA when he's not doin' time
