Lyrics

Underkill

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.

Eureka, eureka, eureka

The cheaper alternative

Let's steal now, let's steal now

Let's steal from the fashions with a not to kill

Idealing, idealing

A blow job for every corporate executive

A-when the lights go out it's you and palace seats at home and turns around

You'll be there in your dressing gown and sowing all the seeds

Be a something so fast 'cos you've gotta go free

You've got a backstage pass so you're VIP

I bet you're happy right now but where will you be

When they ask you to beg for the cash

You demand and you ain't got a song 'cos it's all second hand

So plead it, so plead it

So plead like you need it, your free 60 seconds of fame

They've seen it, they've seen it

They've seen all of bleed on the back of again

But if you miss something don't look around

There ain't no time, you're losing ground

They own your flesh by pound, by pound

Those cunts you choose to leave

It's the cheapest thrill and it's the quickest meal

Try underkill

It's the cheapest thrill and it's the quickest meal

Try underkill

Try underkill

Try underkill

Try underkill

It's the cheapest thrill and it's the quickest meal

Try underkill

It's the cheapest thrill and it's the quickest meal

Try underkill

It's the cheapest thrill and it's the quickest meal

Try underkill

It's the cheapest thrill and it's the quickest meal

Try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

And when you don't need skill try underkill

I'll do anything, a-just as long as I feel

We'll be big, tall, Nelson, live to fame

Be a rock 'n roll star, but a formula laid

We'll be big, tall, Nelson, live to fame

And let's split, with the cash

We only did it, 'cos we're broke!
