Shine the headlight, straight into my eyes Like the roadkill, I'm paralyzed 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 And still not satisfied Airs and social graces, elocution so divine I'll stick to my needle, and my favorite waste of time Both spineless and sublime
Since I was born I started to decay Now nothing ever - ever goes my way
