Blue Light Avenue

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Siren down the avenue at half past three

Blue light smeared across the window pane

I felt the rumble in my chest before the beat

Running through a city that forgets my name

Every corner holds a memory I can't shake

Every headlight asks a question I can't take

Pre-Chorus

And I keep walking keep walking keep walking away

But the sound of the cop pulls me back to the day

Chorus

That sound that sound of da cop

That sound that sound of da cop

Hums in my wiring low and deep

That sound of da cop

Post-Chorus

Da-da-da cop

Da-da-da cop

Mm-hmm

Verse 2

Cold white room and a folding chair

They read my rights like a nursery rhyme

My hands were shaking but I kept them there

Fingers flat on the suspicious crime

Twelve hours later the sky went pale

They let me go but I left a trail

Pre-Chorus

And I keep walking keep walking keep walking away

But the sound of the cop follows wherever I stay

Chorus

That sound that sound of da cop

That sound that sound of da cop

Hums in my wiring low and deep

That sound of da cop

Post-Chorus

Da-da-da cop

Da-da-da cop

Oh-oh

Bridge

Maybe the badge is just a rumor I believed

Maybe the radio is only talking to itself

But every night I count the stripes upon the sleeve

And the siren is the only thing that tells

Breakdown

Mm-hmm

Mm-hmm

Mm-hmm

Da-da-da

Da-da-da

Cop

Chorus

That sound that sound of da cop

That sound that sound of da cop

Hums in my wiring low and deep

That sound of da cop

Post-Chorus

Da-da-da cop

Da-da-da cop

That sound of da cop
