Polite Lyrics

How have you been sleeping

Do you still leave on a light

Do you still toss and turn

Waiting on the world to earn you back

'Bout a quarter after nine

Do you still burn the coffee

Then drink it black out of spite

Do you still carry on like no one ever did you wrong

Does it still keep you up at night

Are you still polite

When no one else is listening

Do you still put the effort in the fight

Playing to the balconies when

Everybody else is scared of heights

And tossing off your casualties

So you can say you always travel light

Do you still like your whiskey

Or have grown up into gin

Are you still counting straight to ten

When you hit the end

That I'll have given up the fight

Are you still polite

When no one else is listening

Do you still put the effort in all night

Playing to the balconies thought

Everybody else is scared of heights

And tossing off your casualties

So you can say you always travel light
