The Authority Box

Lyrics

The authority box
 And the head grenade
 Love is in the blade
 No one ever touches
 Everybody watches everyone
 When the spoilt child
 Hits middle age
 Wants to turn the page
 The page is stuck with blood
 And you know whose blood it is
 That will do nicely
 Step this way, sir
 After you
 I call your name
 But you don't hear me
 I call your name
 But you're nowhere near me anyway
 Sweet 53
 My pink is red
 Unscrew my head
 Failure rips into my
 You're too old for this
 With your vanity on
 So dual key
 So freedom fries
 So Texas vow
 You and your wife have teeth alive, now haven't you?
 Figure I know your love is nothing personal
 I call your name
 But you don't hear me anyway
 When the sun goes down
 I'm a lonely boy
 With a lonely kiss
 Say what you like about this
 But I'll never ever bother you
 I'm stepping out of my disease
 With a CEO and a budget horn
 You just married a guy who didn't know it yet
 Nothing wrong with failure
 Everybody does it
 Can you hear me?
 Can you hear me?
 Ah fuck me, baby
 I'm a trolley bus
 Yeah fuck me, baby
 I'm a trolley bus
 Whoa fuck me, baby
 I'm a trolley bus
