Another Hostage Situation Lyrics by Less Than Jake
Here we go again, go make sure the coast is clear
Put out another fire, get the hell up out of here
Sirens are a-howling, alarm’s they are a-screaming
It’s a shake up, another hostage situation
The early bird, it gets the worm, unless the worm is late
An open door, a creaky floor, which one will seal your fate?
Anything else you wanna pile on the plate?
Yeah, it’s a shake up, another hostage situation
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Finding middle ground is like the calm before the swarm
When hurry up and wait is the exception and the norm
Oh, placing bets this far ahead the oncoming storm
Another shake up, another hostage situation
Make no bones about it, yeah, some heads are gonna roll
Like taking sides or rolling dice, way out of your control
No matter the decision starts to take it’s toll
Yeah, it’s a shake up, another hostage situation
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Don’t cross the line
Don’t cross the line
Steady now, no negotiations
No telling lies
No telling lies
No backing down, no negotiations
No taking sides
No taking sides
Hold your ground, hostage situation
Threat level high, threat level high
Here we go again, go make sure the coast is clear
Put out another fire, get the hell up out of here
Sirens are a-howling, alarm’s they are a-screaming
It’s a shake up, another hostage situation
Looks like the witching hour is upon us once again
The choice is right in front of us, but where do we begin?
Someday we’ll be looking back with mile wide grins
It was a shake up
Red alert, red alert
Red alert, red alert
Red alert, red alert
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
Red alert, red alert
Red alert, red alert
Red alert, red alert, threat level high
