Well, how come you only want tomorrow |
|
With its promise of something hard to do |
|
A real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold |
|
Blue skies above, sun on your arms strength in your stride |
|
And hope in those squeaky clean eyes |
|
You'll get chilly receptions everywhere you go |
|
Blinded with desire - I guess the season is on |
|
So you trade by shadow boxing, search for the truth |
|
But it's all, but it's all used up |
|
Break open your million dollar weapon |
|
And push your luck, still you push, still you push your luck |
|
A broken nosed mogul are you |
|
One of the new wave boys |
|
Same old thing in brand new drag |
|
Comes sweeping into view, oh-ooh |
|
As ugly as a teenage millionaire |
|
Pretending it's a whizz kid world |
|
You'll take me aside, and say |
|
"Well, David, what shall, shall I do? |
|
They wait for me in the hallway" |
|
I'll say "Don't ask me, I don't know any hallways" |
|
But they move in numbers and they've got me in a corner |
|
And I feel like a group of one, no-no |
|
They can't do this to me |
|
I'm not some piece of teenage wildlife |
|
Those midwives to history put on their bloody robes |
|
And the word is that the hunted one is out there on his own |
|
And you're alone for maybe the last time |
|
And you breathe for a long time |
|
Then you howl like a wolf in a trap |
|
And you daren't look behind |
|
You fall to the ground like a leaf from the tree |
|
And look up one time at that vast blue sky |
|
Scream out aloud as they shoot you down |
|
No no, I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife |
|
I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife |
|
And no one will have seen and no one will confess |
|
The fingerprints will prove that you couldn't pass the test |
|
There'll be others on the line filing past, who'll whisper low |
|
'I miss you he had to go' |
|
Well each to his own, he was |
|
Another piece of teenage wildlife, oh-oh-oh-ohh |
|
Another piece of teenage wildlife, oh-oh-oh-ohh |
|
Another piece of teenage wild... |
|
Life |

Wild - Life |
