Olly Olly Oxen Free
So You wanted That's what you get For wanting
You got it That's what you get for getting
Forgotten You're gardening A rotting bed Of raygun era icons So Let's start it Let's start it From the minute you felt it You felt it like a prison
A panic you felt it Like that coffee scene From moscow on the hudson So Be honest it's not as if you're Happy about it It's not as if You're animatronic It's not as if you couldn't Cry out any time you wanted
Olly olly oxen free All the people you will never be Olly olly oxen free Olly olly olly olly Olly olly olly olly
Fate
You call it You color it The color you want it You carpet it
That's awful convenient You paint yourself a nice White room with Stripes & matching curtains So
You forfeit You cannot build A river across it You cannot hold your own heart Hostage You do not have The strength to Gag yourself in every closet
The wrong place wrong mind Timing's always bad You're such a sad case Misplaced renaissance Inventor of a world wide
Heartbreak taking it in stride Cos you're an expert Aren't you Aren't you just a dime a dozen Murderous monosyllabic Moron with no Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Sense of purpose
Working on your songs all night To justify your worthlessness
To anyone who's watching if They only saw your alter egos
Pretty in the shop windows Where you got auctioned hours Ago
Olly olly oxen free All the people you will never be Olly olly oxen free Olly olly olly olly Higher than the king can
See no evil hear no evil Capture me and throw the key See no evil hear no evil Capture me and throw the key Away Throw the key away
So
It's over You're lying in a coffin Of clutter Your father and your sister Your drummer Are sorting through your Soft cell tapes And lifesaver collection And you wonder You wonder if you Could've done better You wonder if you Should've surrendered Before you learned that Nobody actually wants A fucking martyr
Didn't you didn't you didn't Didn't you see Didn't you didn't you didn't Didn't you see Didn't you didn't you you didn't You didn't see me Didn't you didn't you you didn't You didn't see me
Olly olly oxen free All the people you will never be Olly olly oxen free Olly olly olly olly Higher than the king can
See no evil hear no evil Capture me and throw the key See no evil hear no evil Capture me and throw the key Away Throw the key away Throw the key away
