Living In Detente

Living In Detente

Nomeansno
(album: Mama)

Living in detente where buildings grow so great
All the windows are black in secret state
Muttered voices with points that they must make
Rules of order that we´ll negotiate
Living in detente is so enterprising, everyone loves the suspense
Living in detente is just where I want to live

You won´t find it on any map cause it
Lies somewhere between peace and wartime, it´s
One up on the Joneses, a vicious cycle where
Overthrow is check, overkill is mate
Living in detente i so mesmeriszing, erverone walks in a daze
Living in detente where questions make dancers of people whos stories aren´t straight

It´s so quiet, it´s so cool, it´s so cold

Living in detente is just where I want to be
