Alpha Centauri Lyrics by At the Drive-In

in/CASINO/OUT

1998

[Verse 1]
Widows, an antique replacement
A briefcase filled with mace
Widows, six legged lost and found, found
Students, spray the Kent State mist
Wishing wells, missing clientele
Widows, six legged lost and found, found

[Chorus]
Parkas worn in
Summer apparel
Sweat lodge comatose
Of broken arrows

[Verse 2]
Widows, veiled in rebound sheets
This is the ghost of a chance the lonely
Widows, six legged lost and found
Precision, watch the scalpel make roads
Hear them talk in paranoid parables
Widows, sex legged lost and found

[Chorus]
Storefront chairman's
Fingering buttons
This running of the bulls
Will take your life support system

[Refrain]
Madrid space station Spain
E space, e space
Flesh versus machine
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
Madrid space station Spain
E space, e space
Flesh versus machine
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
Madrid space station Spain
E space, e space
Flesh versus machine
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop

[Verse 3]
Widows, an antique replacement
A briefcase filled with mace
Widows, six legged lost and found
Students, spray the Kent State mist
Wishing wells, missing clientele
Widows, six legged lost and found
Parkas worn in summer apparel
Sweat lodge comatose of broken arrows

[Chorus]
Parkas worn in
Summer apparel
Sweat lodge comatose
Of broken arrows
Storefront chairman's
Fingering buttons
This running of the bulls
Will trample all the life support system

[Bridge]
Gored my neck, don't
Spare me death, I'm
Running circles, red cape paper
Taste the vapor
Gored my neck, don't
Spare me death, I'm
Running circles, red cape paper
Taste the vapor
Taste the vapor

[Outro]
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
Matadors chase the bull in a china shop
