Audience of One Songtext
von Cold War Kids

Sunday nights that you want a
Black velvet cake
Sweet heart can bargain
Half price mistakes
She will go down with her ship
Like a good captain
You′re sitting on the dock playing for
An audience of one
Ooo
Ooo

Pacing your apartment, linoleum floors
Get a call from an old friend
She never like them before
He will drive all over three lanes
You sit tight, shotgun
When she rifles waving for
An audience of one


You came out from the country
Wearing momma's clothes
You were born in the city
Daddy′s dominos
You need a record you can move to
Well we got one
Drop the needle
We are playing for an audience of one
Drop the needle
We are playing for an audience of one

One gets all of you, two jealous
Three get even less
Four divides you up then you're left
Pleasing all your guests

Reach out your pointed finger
And touch the globe
Spin around and where it stops
You've got to pack your bags and go
Land in the Mohave Desert
Sing for the sun


Three′s too many when you′re playing for
An audience of one
Two's too busy when you′re playing for
An audience of one
One is the only way playing for
An audience of one
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
