Times Are Tight

[Verse 1]
When your magic’s lost
And the new magic’s broken
When all the rooms are locked
But the cages are open
The papers don’t say
What the papers don’t know
But it’s time to hang on tight
Or just let go

[Chorus]
Times are tight
Times are tight
Even the rich man’s
Scared of the night
Times are tight

[Verse 2]
Now what you gonna do
With the shadows
Come stumbling through your yard
A moment ‘bout some lost
Some missing God
How you gonna feed your fam’ly
Where you gonna park your car
When the moon hangs like an anchor
Around your heart

[Chorus]
Times are tight
Times are tight
Even the rich man
Scared of the night
Times are tight
Times are tight
Times are tight
Even the rich man’s
Scared of the night
Times are tight
Times are tight
Times are tight
Even the dead man’s
Scared of the night
Times are tight
