There’s a moon in the sky and it’s shining, shining, shining
There’s a bell in the church and it’s ringing, clanging, pining
And it happens all the time
It happens all the time

There’s a bill in my hand and it’s burning, burning, burning
There’s a face in the moonlight waiting, watching, turning
There’s my feet in the alleyway stalking, stalking, stalking
There’s a price for a kiss and I’m paying, no one’s talking

There’s a place in the dark and it’s glowing, glowing, glowing
There’s a clock and the numbers are changing, changing knowing
And it happens all the time
It happens all the time

There’s my soul and the war that it’s staging, staging, staging
There’s a flame in my skull and it’s stunning, stabbing, raging
There’s a body a body it’s bleeding, bleeding, bleeding
There’s a bill in my fist and I’m running, hiding, pleading

There’s a hole in the day just beginning, beginning, beginning
There’s a lottery ticket that’s winning, winning, winning
And it happens all the time
It happens all the time
