Chorus:
Metal beat
Metal beat
Metal beat
Metal beat
Jim Suit
Black hair
Dim skin
Gold teeth
A trickle voice like a silver sheet
The pulling of the light
Reflecting in my eyes
Pick up a flip-top box from a vinyl seat
(Chorus)
Drift in
Drift out
We're gone
I'm here
Click on
Click off
No, no
Don't get too near
Name on the shatterproof glass
Melt into a mass
Let's slide across me in this heat
(Chorus)
