I saw you at the police station and it breaks my heart to say.
Your eyes had wandered off to something distant, cold and grey.
I guess you didn't see it coming,
someone's gotten used to slumming.
Dreaming of the golden years,
I see you had to change careers.
Far away, but we both know its somewhere.
I saw you on the back page of some pre press yesterday.
The drip wood in your eyes had nothing short of love for pain.
I know you from another picture,
of someone with the most convictions.
We used to read the funny papers,
fooled around and pulled some capers.
Not today, send a message to her.
A message that I'm coming, coming to pursue her.
(Chorus 1)
Tell your country I, rest my face on your bed.
I got you ten times over, I'll chase you down 'til you're dead.
I saw you on a tv station and it made me wanna pray.
An empty shell of loveliness is now dusted with decay.
What happened to the funny paper?
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/police-station-lyrics-red-hot-chili-peppers.html ]
Smiling was your money maker.
Someone oughta situate her,
find a way to educate her.
All the way, time to come and find you.
You can't hide from me girl, so never mind what I do.
(Chorus 2)
Tell your country I, rest my face on your bed.
I bet my sovereign country and I, left it all for your head.
I saw you in the church and there was no time to exchange.
You were getting married and it felt so very strange.
I guess I didn't see it coming,
now I guess it's me who's bumming.
Dreaming of the golden years,
you and I were mixing tears.
Not today, not for me but someone.
Never could get used to, so now I will refuse to.
(Chorus 2)
Tell your country I, rest my face on your bed.
I bet my sovereign country and I, left it all for your head
I got my best foot forward and I'll chase you down 'til you're dead.
