[Verse 1]
Over the mountain
Down in the valley
Lives a former talk-show host
Everybody knows his name
He says, "There's no doubt about it"
It was the myth of fingerprints
I've seen them all and, man, they're all the same
[Chorus]
Well, the sun gets weary, and the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says, "What's a better thing to do?"
Well, it's not just me, and it's not just you
This is all around the world
[Verse 2]
Out in the Indian Ocean somewhere
There's a former army post
Abandoned now, just like the war
And there's no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That's what that old army post was for
[Chorus]
Well, the sun gets bloody, and the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says, "What's a better thing to do?"
Well, it's not just me, and it's not just you
This is all around the world
[Verse 3]
Over the mountain
Down in the valley
Lives a former talk-show host
And far and wide, his name was known
He said, "There's no doubt about it"
It was the myth of fingerprints
That's why we must learn to live alone
[Outro]
Ooh, oh, live on, live on, live on
Ooh, oh, live on, live on, live on, live on
Ooh, oh, live on, live on, live on, live on
All around the world
Ooh, oh, live on, live on, live on, live on
All around the world
