Northern State No Surprises
A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide
With no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silence.
This is my final fit
My final bellyache
With no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please.
Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden.
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises please.
