Love And Addiction |
| Put on your bad self |
| Get out your party dress and |
| Fix up your makeup |
| Try to make a good impression |
| This is a new world |
| We’re all the same here |
| Well, maybe not the same |
| But you know what I mean |
| I’ve got everything that you want |
| I’ve got everything and someday, I’ll be president |
| And I’ve got everything that you want |
| I’ve got everything and honey, are you listening? |
| Hey, Eliza, now what do you want? |
| I play piano, and I sing like a humming bird, and |
| Oh, I forgot that humming birds don’t sing |
| It doesn’t matter, really, you know what I mean |
| Separate love from addiction |
| It’s not the same |
| I know, I see |
| Desperation pulling my strings |
| Take out your hairpins and |
| Lift up your party dress and |
| Sit back and listen for the rush of suffering |
| Hey, Eliza, is this what you want? |
| Sometimes you compromise to get the things you need |
| I’ve got everything that you want |
| I’ve got everything and it’s a brand new world, Eliza |
| I’ve got everything that you want |
| I’ve got everything, except the single thing you really need |
| Send away |
| Blood and rejection, they isolate |
| I know I see a generation staring back at me |
| Wasted away, wasted my time |
| This picture you see is nothing like the one I want painted of me |
| Eliza says, «It's alright with me, if you’re sure |
| It wouldn’t be the first time |
| You know it’s happened a couple of times before |
| And I don’t even expect much anymore anyway |
| It’s not as if I was waiting for you to come and make it all okay» |
| Yeah, but your family is gone, Eliza |
| So won’t you look into my eyes, Eliza? |
| Shut away to wean blood and rejection, they isolate |
| I know I see visions of people running over me, yeah |
| Wasted away, wasted my time |
| This picture you see is nothing like the one I want painted of me |
| Put on your bad self |
| Get out your party dress and |
| Fix up your makeup |
| Try to make a good impression |
