|
How many times can you jump out of the cupboard |
|
Before someone gets suspicious or someone gets discovered |
|
You can live forever in a split second of fame |
|
Come on down the price is right what's your name |
|
While a crocodile makes good shoes and a dog may change his coat |
|
I can't change what's written on your face tonight and i quote |
|
Chorus |
|
Oh i wish you could see |
|
Quite how much you could mean to me |
|
You worthless thing |
|
If you were ten feet taller and almost handsome |
|
I might pay this king's ransom |
|
You worthless thing |
|
They commit blue murder along union avenue |
|
Then they sell you souvenir matches |
|
Nightclubs full of grave robbers from memphis, tennessee |
|
And las vegas body snatchers |
|
And he's carrying a warning can't you see how his eyes glint |
|
Keep your bloody hands off my life your affectionate fingerprint |
|
Chorus |
|
All the cars and pills and girls who tore his shirt to tatters |
|
Do you know how tall he was 'cos that is all that really matters? |
|
Do you know his mother's last name do you think that he's divine? |
|
You've seen the film you've read the book |
|
You're drinking vintage elvis presley wine |
|
Bored out of your tiny mind while life is twice as large |
|
They'll cut her down to size on television |
|
She's available and beautiful, but with more time to devote |
|
They're going to take this cable now and stick it down your throat |
|
So this is an obituary which should be right and fitting |
|
For every clockwork cat and conceivable kitten |
|
Chorus |
