- Grounds For Divorce Lyrics

You said you hate the sound
Of the busses on the ground
You said you hate the way they scrape their bricks all
over town
Said pretend it's whales
Keeping their voices down
Such were the grounds for divorce i know
On the radio
And the bouncing bodies' drone
Found eighteen reasons I can't pick up on the phone
Said look at the clouds
It's a show all on its own
Such were the grounds for divorce i know
But the dialing is dead
We hit it on the head
It looked like a wedding cake
But the dialing is dead
We hit it on the head
It looked like a newlywed
But I look at the lovers

And they way they stand
And the way they move and the way move their hands
And I look at their babies
And their tiny little hands
And the way they get loved and the way they get loved
Oh look at the lovers
And they way they stand
And the way they move and the way move and the way move
their hands
Said you hate the sound
Of the busses on the ground
Said you hate the way they scrape their bricks all over
town
Said pretend it's wales
And keeping their voices down
Such were the grounds for divorce i know
Looked like a newlywed
On the radio
And the bouncing bodies' drone
Found eighteen reasons I can't pick up on the phone
Said look at the clouds
It's a show all on its own
Such were the grounds such were the grounds for divorce
i know
