"Telling Stories" lyrics

It's three-thirty
School is letting out
Window-shopping
Finally got time alone
This house seems so small
Family wall to wall

Seven-thirty
Hooking up with John and Mark
At the playground
Chesterfields and bubble gum
Everything seems so hard
I guess that's why they
Call it growing up

Telling stories
Did you hear the one?
Do you like to laugh?
Did you hear that song?
Telling stories
Of moving on
Fallen angels
And broken arms

About the midnight hour
Up in Danny's room
Playing records
Patti Smith and Howlin' Wolf
What a long way to go
I ain't old ya know

Three-thirty
Show is letting out
In my hotel room
Finally got time alone
What a long way to go
At least I hope so
I've only just begun

Telling stories
Did you hear the one?
Do you like to laugh?
Did you hear that song?
Telling stories
Of moving on
Fallen angels
And broken arms

Telling stories
Conversation ends
Do you like to laugh?
Did you hear that song?
Telling stories
Of moving on
Fallen angels
And broken arms
