Blood of a Young Wolf

ten thousand horses, sable island, endless summer

oh my god i'm hot to steal, beside myself and friendless number

i ain't got no culture, nothing, dirty words, but that don't count

flight attendants, waitresses, superstition, good amount

there's work to do, hell to pay, memories and fingerprints

calling papa ignorance

and i don't wanna go, sick and tired

zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, zoom, kick, persuasion, tech

it's an egg and spoon race, slow and steady, desert highway, a bientot

still i'm stuck, i cant afford it, picture postcard, small momento

echo, shadow, echo, shadow, sterling silver, burning furnace

frozen nowhere, just a kid, i had a friend named deadly earnest

cross my heart and hope to die, stick a needle in my arm

praise the heavens, call the cops, relax, there's no cause for alarm

diamond rings and little babies, startlements and miracles

i remember pretty faces so severe and lyrical

i'm talking amelia earhart, neko case and frida kahlo

all alone, the way it should be, i don't even need a shadow

seeds of wisdom, found no purchase, we don't even have a chance

birthday party, armageddon, long stemmed roses, avalanche

broken fingers, going nowhere fast and screeching to a halt

all that work for nothin', uh oh, whipping boy it's all my fault

zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, zoom, kick, persuasion, tech

zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, tech, tech, tech

i don't wanna go to pieces, easy going, afraid to fly and so i'm running

catching fish and chopping wood, the revolution, slow time coming

i don't know what else to do, cross my fingers, teach the children

read your fortunes, storm the studios, come on all ye faithful pilgrims

no more same old song and dance, some good ideas get overplayed

i eat my breakfast, ride my bike, a knife between my shoulderblades

see i'm a man of many problems up against some scary odds

we kill, we hide, we all fall down, idiots love to bury gods

it doesn't happen overnight though, never, still i'm filled with wonder

lonely like a tightrope walker, hitchhiker, long distance runner

zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, good night for you bad night for me

but i still love you lying down, k i s s i n g

not bad, not bad, not bad at all i tried your shoes on

cigarettes and crucifixes, ingmar bergman, alphonse mouzon

really boring modern music, really boring modern girl

get me out of here, i'm drowning, i don't like this modern world

anti-intellect and marketing, pretty, pretty, who needs talent

crying eyes, we're so outnumbered, fight for the right to remain silent

what do i know, who am i, my two left feet my big dumb face

i'd do the same if i had the chance, cheat the system, rig the race

it's all one big misunderstanding, inside out i turn my coat

don't look back don't move a muscle, one false move that's all she wrote

zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, zoom, kick, persuasion, tech

zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, tech, tech, tech
