Mr. Hudson - Straight No Chaser

Straight no chaser

We don't waste our time on fakeness

One glass, one shot is all it takes us

Better this than fade away

So, our story goes this empty city

Crowded skies are clearing but I'm lonesome

No! Bring on the night

There's work a plenty

Fluorescent lamps are passing in slow motion

Only I will wander

Only I can leave

Straight no chaser

We don't waste our time on fakeness

One glass, one shot is all it takes us

Better this than fade away

So we set the scene: a sea of faces

Laser eyes are watching as we close in

Don't play innocent

I know your thinking

You're chasing conversation out of focus

Only I will wander

Only I can leave

Straight no chaser

We don't waste our time on fakeness

One glass, one shot is all it takes us

Better this than fade away

Straight no chaser

We don't waste our time on fakeness

One glass, one shot is all it takes us

Better this than fade away

Fade away

Fade away

Fade away
