Shine the headlight,
Straight into my eyes.
Like the roadkill,
I'm paralysed.
You see through my disguise
At the drive-in,
Double feature,
Pull the lever,
Break the fever
And say your last goodbyes.
Since I was born
I started to decay
Now nothing ever
Ever goes my way
One fluid gesture,
Like stepping back in time
Trapped in amber, petrified
I’m still not satisfied
Airs and social graces,
Elocution so divine
I’ll stick to my needle
And my favourite waste of time
Both spineless and sublime
Since I was born
I started to decay
Now nothing ever
Ever goes my way.
