| Black Friday | |
|
Money was a never ending object
For you from the start
Picture of, another fucking christian
That you just call god
Typical, chemical
What you want?
You want a black friday
Electrical, subliminal
What you want?
You want a black friday
Yeah
You want a black friday
Yeah
Could you be another fucking liar
That I'll ever knew
Yeah all the girls
Staring at the guys after
School watching you
Typical, chemical
What you want?
You want a black friday
Subliminal, electrical
What you want?
You want a black friday
Yeah you want a black friday
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah!!!!

Were you neurotic as a child?
Did they come around and watch your style?
Did you have plans to be a star?
Did you have plans to become more than you are?
Maybe rock was in your dreams
Maybe being there was far too obscene
Swing it high and swing it low
Swing it anytime where you wanna go
More than you are
More than you are
More than you are now
I'm more than you are
More than you are
More than you are now
Yeah
Alright, yeah yeah yeah
Alright
Were you neurotic as a child?
Did they come around and watch your style?
Did you have plans to be a star?
Did you have plans to become more than you are?
More than you are
More than you are
More than you are now
I'm more than you are
More than you are
More than you are now

Have you had enough
You've been around the block too many times to try and find a park
Did you spend a buck
Wishing on the millions that the mystery gave away
Are you very small
Even though you're tall your always falling on the floor
Are you very drunk
Look me in the eye and try and tell me that i'm not
Busy having a good time
Busy having a good
Are you lonely
Sitting in the car park paranoia is a friend
Need the company
Playing lots of mind games really is a treat now
Are you very small
Even though you're taller your always falling on the floor
Are you very drunk
Look me in the eye and try and tell me that i'm not
Busy having a good time
Busy
Have you had enough
You've been around the park too many times to try and find a block
Did you spend a buck
Hiding in the back row wasting all away now
Are you very small
Even though you're taller your always falling on the floor
Are you very drunk
Look me in the eye and try and tell me that i'm not
Busy having a good time
Busy having a good time
Busy having a good
busy, busy.

Yeah
Juliette played russian roulette
With love in her head and a gun on her shoulder
When it comes to love I've seen it all, heard it all
Yes Im pissed and I'm a selfish bore
Yes Im pissed and I'm a selfish bore
And the girls have muttered
Muttering bullshit
Muttering bullshit
Girls all know
Your love is such good shit
Take me (home)ho-ee-o-eoeoeoeoeoeoeoeme
Yeah
Romeo played russian roulette
With a gun in the head and love on his shoulder
When it comes to love I've seen it all, heard it all
Mr pisshead oh you selfish fool
Mr pisshead oh you selfish fool
All the girls have muttered
Muttering bullshit"
Muttering bullshit
Girls all know
Your love is such a good shit
Take me (home)ho-ee-o-eoeoeoeoeoeoeoeme
Yo!
Muttering bullshit
Girls all know
Your love is such a good shit
Take me (home)ho-ee-o-eoeoeoeoeoeoeoeme.

Nothing breeds more contempt for this world than the memories now formed
Every moment a new seed is grown to no reason the trouble unfolds
For the trials of today, I'm no jury
Really don't care how you feel
The pleasant notion of miraculous change drifts into multiple jeers
Jeers
You want the good life
You break your back
You Snap Your Fingers, You Snap Your Neck
Seconds drip through my hands, washed of moments unborn
All the spaces between bleed, a tribute to a sacrament never exposed
A message to the forces I've no pity, don't know how thankful to feel
Expectations of our daily bread gives me the hunger to steal
You want the good life
You break your back
You Snap Your Fingers, You Snap Your Neck
Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck
