Story behind the song
Well, there was a power outtage and I realized how much the media frenzies over the story -- phone lines down, nobody can go online, power out, traffic signals down. So the first verse just poured out. Then Janea came from the angle that although there may be chaos amuck, her lines would be open.
But in the end, it's usually a "False Alarm" (the alternate title to this song). But what do we learn from it? Will we be prepared for the next big one?
Lyrics
LINES ARE OPEN Jason & Janea Ebs
Scattered Media tell the story
some are out for their own glory
ground crews scurry all about
while traffic lights are flickering out
phone lines barely holdin' on
online service all but gone
Bin-Laden livin' on the Lamb
Atm's aren't worth a damn
My Lines Are Open
My Lines Are Open
Signal if you care
All were scared and some to death
It was a false alarm at best
Everyone was made aware
But will we ever be prepared
Phone lines barely holdin’ on
Online service all but gone
Bin Laden livin on the lamb
Atm’s aren’t worth a damn
------------ Chorus ½ time------------
My Lines are open
My lines are open
My Lines are open
My lines are open – Why don’t you signal if you care?
Signal If you Care – WHY DON’T YOU SIGNAL IF YOU CARE?
Signal if you care
Signal if you care – WHY DON’T YOU SIGNAL IF YOU CARE?
Signal if you care
My Lines are open
My lines are open
My Lines are open
My lines are open
Signal if you care – WHY DON’T YOU SIGNAL IF YOU CARE?
Signal if you care… WHY DON’T YOU SIGNAL IF YOU CARE?
