See the cars down below How they go, they come and they go See the fools, work all day Fade away and they don't even know It's a shame, it's insane It's the world that's happening here And it's hard to maintain When everything is so insincere Alice is on the rooftop Alice is on the rooftop There's a part in a play That I swear was meant just for me It's the part of a sailor Who's becoming afraid of the sea Where ya going? Where ya been? Are you trying so hard to fit in? What's the point? Fix the joint And tomorrow you can tell me again And Alice is on the rooftop Alice is on the rooftop And the sun don't ever come Where the rain refuses to fall And you can't jump the bridge When there is no bridge at all There's a cross in the hand Of a man who is ready to die There's a bird on my window I believe she's ready to fly Take your toes from the ledge And your arms are open wide You're so tired, you're so torn But your heart keeps beating inside And Alice is on the rooftop Alice is on the rooftop Yeah, Alice
