What If No One's Watching lyrics

If my life were a movie

There would be a sunset

And the camera would pan away

But the sky is just a little sister

Tagging along behind the buildings

Trying to imitate their grey

The little boys are breaking bottles

Along the sidewalk

The big boys, too

The girls are hanging out at the candy store

Pumping quarters into the phone

'cause they don't want to go home

And I think

What if no one's watching

What it when we're dead, we're just dead

What if it's just us down here

What if god ain't looking down

What if he's looking up instead

If my life were a movie

I would light a cigarette

And the smoke would curl around my face

Everything I do would be interesting

I'd play the good guy

In every scene

But I always feel I have to

Take a stand

And there's always someone on hand

To hate me for standing there

I always feel I have to open my mouth

And every time I do

I offend someone

Somewhere

But what

What if no one's watching

What if when we're dead, we're just dead

What if there's no time to lose

What if there's things we gotta do

Things that need to be said

You know I can't apologize

For everything I know

I mean you don't have to agree with me

But once you get me going

You better just let me go

We have to be able to criticize

What we love

Say what we have to say

'cause if you're not trying to make something better

As far as I can tell

You're just in the way

I mean what

What if no one's watching

What if when we're dead

We're just dead

What if it's just us down here

What if god is just an idea

Someone put in your head

I mean what

What if no one's watching

What if no one's watching...
