Losing Battle

No money, no future
Well that's what you were thinking
When I caught you in the closet
What a fine place to be sinking

Afraid to step outside
Into the streets of disease
Frozen like so many others caught in the same squeeze

Oh but I've had this feeling so many times before
It seems like every day's a losing battle in a never ending war

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
That's what you were singing
When the faucets all went dry
And the telephone stopped ringing

Six years to the day of your folks final command
They made obsolete all the adventures we had planned

Oh but I've had this feeling so many times before
It seems like every day's a losing battle in a never ending war

You and I girl, we got a good thing going
Let's not worry so much that we destroy it
There'll be peace in perfect world someday
But we won't be able to enjoy it

No money, no future
That's exactly what you said
As I tried to drag you out from underneath the bed
All those Japanese calendars flaming
In the oil drum out back
We're not quite enough to ward off tomorrow's surprise attack

Oh but I've had this feeling so many times before
It seems like every day's a losing battle in a never ending war

Yes and I've had this feeling so many times before
It seems like every day's a losing battle in a never ending war
