Lyrics
Zombie
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.
Lo, she's seas apart from me
Possessed behind the eyes
Well, apart from the frightening, the moaning, the biting
He seemed to be a nice guy
And I know what she thinks when she looks at me
When she looks with such despair
Well, you're not the only one around here
Who needs a bit of fresh air
'Cause I'm a sad sack post-teen
Caught up in the love machine
No dream, come clean
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train, fast lane
Caught up in the dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
Well, this old place here, man, it's falling apart
She's on the road, there she goes, but she won't get far
I'm on a show to parole to the toad in the hole
I gotta grow some roots, gotta prop up the bar
I got bloodshot eyes and there's blood in my teeth
I got a ripped up jacket and a friend who's a thief
Well, I'm-a coughing out my mouth, trying to pull it out
But the fire inside keeps burning, burning out
'Cause I'm a sad sack post-teen
Caught up in the love machine
No dream, come clean
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train, fast lane
Caught up in the dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
Hold your own in the situation
Don't be afraid to be a friend
'Cause I won't hurt you, girl, or leave you a loose end
You make me alive enough to love again
'Cause I'm a sad sack post-teen
Caught up in the love machine
No dream, come clean
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train, fast lane
Caught up in the dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
'Cause I'm a sad sack post-teen
Caught up in the love machine
No dream, come clean
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
And I'm a coal train, fast lane
Caught up in the dirty rain
No pain, no gain
Walking like a zombie
Like a zombie
Like a zombie
Like a zombie
Like a zombie
Like a zombie
Like a zombie
Like a zombie
