In my rear view mirror the sun is going downSinking behind bridges in the roadI think of all the good things that we have left undoneAnd I suffer premonitionsConfirm suspicionsOf the holocaust to come
The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger inGives way and suddenly it's day againThe sun is in the east even though the day is doneTwo suns in the sunsetCould be the human race is run
Like the moment when the brakes lockAnd you slide towards the big truck ("Oh no!")You stretch the frozen moments with your fearAnd you'll never hear their voices ("Daddy, Daddy!")And you'll never see their facesYou have no recourse to the law anymore
And as the windshield melts and my tears evaporateLeaving only charcoal to defendFinally I understand the feelings of the fewAshes and diamondsFoe and friendWe were all equal in the end
...and now the weather. Tomorrow will be cloudy with scattered showers spreading from the east ... with an expected high of 4000 degrees Celsius..."

And I can feel one of my turns coming on.I feel, cold as a razor bladeTight as a tourniquetDry as a funeral drum,
Run to the bedroom, in the suitcase on the leftYou'll find my favourite axeDon't look so frightenedThis is just a passing phaseOne of my bad days((#Notes|3))Would you like to watch T.V.?Or get between the sheets?Or contemplate the silent freeway?Would you like something to eat?Would you like to learn to fly? Would you?((#Notes|4))Would you like to see me try? Ooh no((#Notes|5))

If you didn't care what happened to me,And I didn't care for you,We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain,Occasionally glancing up through the rain,Wondering which of the buggers to blameAnd watching for pigs on the wing.

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street,You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.
And after a while, you can work on points for style.Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,So that when they turn their backs on you,You'll get the chance to put the knife in.
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.You know it's going to get harder, and harder and harder as you get older.And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south,Hide your head in the sand,Just another sad old man,All alone and dying of cancer.
And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown.And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around.So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone, [1]Dragged down by the stone. [2]
I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused.Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used.Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my own way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb and blind, you just keep on pretendingThat everyone's expendable and no one has a real friend.And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner.And everything's done under the sun,And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.
Who was born in a house full of pain.Who was trained not to spit in the fan.Who was told what to do by the man.Who was broken by trained personnel.Who was fitted with collar and chain.Who was given a pat on the back. [3]Who was breaking away from the pack.Who was only a stranger at home.Who was ground down in the end.Who was found dead on the phone.Who was dragged down by the stone.Who was dragged down by the stone [4]

Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are.You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are.And when your hand is on your heartYou're nearly a good laugh,Almost a joker,With your head down in the pig bin,Saying, "Keep on digging."Pig stain on your fat chin.What do you hope to find?Down in the pig mine. 1You're nearly a laugh,You're nearly a laugh,But you're really a cry.
Bus stop rat bag, ha ha charade you are.You fucked up old hag, ha ha charade you are.You radiate cold shafts of broken glassYou're nearly a good laugh,Almost worth a quick grinYou like the feel of steel,You're hot stuff with a hat pin,And good fun with a hand gun.You're nearly a laugh,You're nearly a laughBut you're really a cry.
Hey you, Whitehouse, ha ha charade you are.You house proud town mouse, ha ha charade you are.You're trying to keep our feelings off the streetYou're nearly a real treat,All tight lips and cold feet,And do you feel abused?.....! ......! ......! ......!You gotta stem the evil tide,And keep it all on the inside,Mary you're nearly a treat,Mary you're nearly a treatBut you're really a cry.
