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 weakened
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 transient's 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
So let's get wired, I feel weakened
Make it look so easy, come on, come on
Let's get wired, I feel weakened
Make it look so easy, come on, come on freak
Let's get wired
In their house we're belching
Down some very nice words
Just to keep it brief
We'll get tomorrow as you win
"It's not really going to work, I don't think"
"Hmm, just play it anyway"
Beautiful boy, what can I do
I told you I told you
Beautiful boy, I know I never do
What I want to, I want to
