On Standby

[Verse 1]
Would you stay here on standby?
Because I need another alibi
In the wrong place at the wrong time
Could you talk a fine line?
I need to know that I'll be fine
Bulletproof

[Chorus]
It's like I've never been born
We conceive in the alleyways
It's like I've never been born
We believe in other ways that you do and you did
And there's proof that we did wrong tonight

[Verse 2]
Could you sense a tragedy?
Because I saw it on the BBC
There's a panel on that channel
Could you walk a narrow line?
I need to know I'll serve my time
With some use

[Chorus]
It's like I've never been born
We conceive in the alleyways
It's like I've never been born
We believe in other ways that you do and you did
And there's proof that we did wrong tonight

[Bridge]
And tonight you can cry if you want to
But it won't help you
You can cry if you want to
But it won't help you to get you through this crime
It will plague you, standby

[Chorus]
It's like I've never been born
We conceive in the alleyways
It's like I've never been born
We believe in other ways that you do and you did
And there's proof that we did wrong tonight
We did wrong
We did wrong
