Lyrics
Freak
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.
Traded your bucket and bruises for a bag of bones
And a wardrobe of excuses
You live too hard, you look too good
And you're in my backyard,
just like everybody said you would be.
Greased by imposters
Plastic at the crust
orbiting lighter
You'd gone too far if you could,
And you're in my backyard,
just like everybody said you would be.
So let's get wired, I feel weak
Make it look so easy, come on, come on freak.
You're a liar, I'm a thief
And this will get you
If your baby gets down off, I'm listening
It gets so crowded in an empty place
Two eyeballs for every face
Three bodies hanging up a transients cell
Six hands in the same hole
It gets so crowded in an empty place
Two eyes for every face
Three weary bodies hanging up one's soul
Six hands in the same hole
Everybody said you would be
Greased by imposters
Plastic at the crust
And I'm orbiting lighter
You live too hard, you look too good
And you're in my backyard,
just like everybody said you would be
In their house we're belching down some very nice words
Just to keep it brief, we'll get tomorrow as you win
