| [00:37.31] |
With a heart-attack on your plane |
| [00:40.99] |
You were looking back on your days |
| [00:44.92] |
How you spent them all in a blur |
| [00:48.73] |
When they asked if you were for sure |
| [00:52.72] |
Let the sugar melt down your throat |
| [00:56.59] |
Cos you know it's sweet getting old |
| [01:00.52] |
With a lollipop and a rose |
| [01:04.46] |
Let the hospital be your home |
| [01:08.33] |
|
| [01:10.44] |
Cos your knees are scratched and your eyes are black |
| [01:15.12] |
|
| [01:17.26] |
Put a plaster there and I'll sign your cast |
| [01:21.68] |
|
| [01:23.75] |
In the liner notes at the end |
| [01:27.86] |
Some familiar names in tiny print |
| [01:31.98] |
On the cover page of the year |
| [01:35.60] |
Grainy photographs, greasy hair |
| [01:39.52] |
But it's noon o'clock and you're still asleep |
| [01:43.52] |
And your coffee's cold, your coffee's icy |
| [01:48.26] |
|
| [01:49.39] |
Cos your knees are scratched and your eyes are black |
| [01:54.19] |
|
| [01:56.12] |
Put a plaster there and I'll sign your cast |
| [02:00.89] |
|
| [02:33.74] |
Classic Hollywood as a kid |
| [02:36.80] |
With the volume up all the way |
| [02:39.36] |
Now you do the same and you're right |
| [02:42.35] |
Things are better in black and white |
| [02:45.16] |
But there's another girl in another day |
| [02:48.34] |
And your fate will feel and taste the same |
| [02:51.96] |
|
| [02:52.59] |
Cos your knees are scratched and your eyes are black |
| [02:56.90] |
|
| [02:57.71] |
Put a plaster there and I'll sign your cast |
| [03:01.76] |
|
| [03:02.32] |
We're the best and the brightest, turn the television on |
| [03:06.51] |
|
| [03:07.82] |
Have your seatbelts strapped and your helmets on |
| [03:11.43] |
|
| [03:15.24] |
