Lyrics
Gumshield
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Snakebite, strike out, how about...
Lovebite, suck the poison out
Wish you'd dare to drop your mask
Know that's just too much to ask
Pulled the rug out beneath my feet
Pointless for me to compete
Flying V and Marshall amp
Wailing from the Ego Ramp
Parading everything, I'd rather hide
Missy kicking, screaming stillborn child
I take a moment, this may take a while
And still you distract me
I give a gumshield smile
Not as bad as people think
I hide my shame beneath the sink
I tell myself it's not my friend
Then find I've filled it up again
Inhaling aerosols and pesticides
Mercy-killing bringing sunny skies
They'll slap a ban on all that we've enjoyed
They're only here to tell you
To tell you what to avoid
They're only here to tell you what to avoid...
It's going wrong and I don't care
There's nothing wrong and nothing there
Aerosols and pesticides
Killing bringing sunny skies.
