[Verse1] Bodies in the hallways Drowned in a flood of pure boredom All hail the survivors Hand me another four horsemen They've taped their mouths up They let the others talk for them Catch the light from all angles My face's been diamond studded all autumn Let me leak out of the soles of my feet Head straight to the drain and escape through the plumbing The bugs all surf on the wave I'm becoming The streetlights hang like angels above it Midnight's favourites: the kid with the braces; A spike through his cheek and a greasy Mohican The one legged drunken, the screaming policemen The lord of the corner, the freak of the season [hook] All sprawled out in the city Swaying Pieces of shrapnel are flying Through 'em Iron man sits in the sewer Swelling Voice in the wind keeps lying To him Just stepped out of the offy Grinning God's parked up with the meter Running Blood red soul with the body Missing Head for the hills, I see him Coming [Verse 2] The worms ate your friends, damn! Santa Muerte takes revenge Why's he still wasted? Cherchez la femme? Peep through the curtains, earthquakes again Oily eyed creatures plucked off the streets Packed in the yard; sardines in tins Old men strewn on a cardboard floor like a box of discarded half-eaten wings [Bridge] Handstand on two middle fingers, yeah Let me just hold this a while, yeah Never shake hands with a bear trap, nah Never pick holes in a smile It's late and our faces are burning I will never dress for the cold Boil up the last of the skyline Slurping the dregs of the bowl [Verse3] The kid lost the plot back in twenty eighteen He peppers his ex missus with a million texts He rings her door buzzer 'til the wires sneak out And wrap round his pale skin wringing his neck Beasts in the basement The puddles on the ground led straight to a bright green dribbling wreck Still pissed 'coz you played every king in your deck Death's at the front gate dripping in sweat The crowd clawed for attention We just stayed slumped in the wings I've been waved all year Gotta keep playing 'til somebody wins But my man emptied his shells and discarded a whole rack of comfortable skins Then sat himself down in a plush pub toilet and hit a triple twenty with a rusty syringe Handed his prize by a creep in a ballgown One month drunk in a sleepy resort town Blood stained sand in a burnt-out beach bar Stand back, I'll be the freak in the foreground Don't worry guys I got it covered Ghouls in the backseats bracing for impact Dig for the heart strings, peeling the skin back Pass him a shot glass, seal him in shrink wrap [Hook] All sprawled out in the city Swaying Pieces of shrapnel are flying Through 'em Iron man sits in the sewer Swelling Voice in the wind keeps lying To him Just stepped out of the offy Grinning God's parked up with the meter Running Blood red soul with the body Missing Head for the hills, I see him Coming [Verse 4] Midnight's favourites I think we captured a few more, Captain Thats sour creep started to scream and the six fruit flies in the room all backed him Put your tear drops and your candles away, you ain't fooling a soul with that lukewarm acting Newborn hatchling Brain like a chewed pork scratching These dark corners They'd all crawl out of them given the chance Hordes of obese men sit in their yards Surrounded by grinning carnivorous plants Tell the gods I want all my shit in advance Hand me my future, I'll bathe in it now I'll be on a gun tower dodging the death-rays Dancing the Charleston and taking a bow Yeah [Outro] I've packed for deep space But I dress for the twenties Sell me your wine cellar I'm all set with the readies We stayed up the whole month My heart slept in our bellies We'll sell you a dream and a week of amnesia, surrender your pennies
