Harp for Bats

Minako made me some brand new horns*
When I’m feeling brave I put them on
Everybody thinks that I’m some kinda devil
Taking this stuff to some crazy levels
Who’s to say these days will end
Spend all my time with my chemicals friends
Go all out, go out like, there ain’t no day, there ain’t no night
New York City anything goes, why’d you think Nijinsky thinks he’s a horse?
And Parker Posey’s taking a pause before she goes and makes better movies abroad
Sitting upstairs in the RER, going through the tunnel can’t see so far,
out of control like a stolen car, thinking about Blondie and them men from
mars
I close my eyes, count to ten and you aren’t there, I close my eyes,
count to ten and you aren’t there
When this broken kiss is over, when you bite my lip, when I don’t know what I
told ya or what it did, when we know it’s never over, even when it is,
silence is the most violent thing to give
We got the trade but the trade ain’t fair
If there weren’t slaves there’d be nobody here
Put on my gloves, put on my pads, start real slow then I go kinda sad
There’s no stopping no holding back, I wonder if we’re ever gonna answer that
Nothing on my mind but the golden cat, last night running round this lonely
track
We no that these are the only days, we’re in Versailles but they’ve closed the
gates
Laser treatment, sweet like honey, watch the time, don’t watch the money
It was so sharp, it was so hardcore
Eleven o’clock we ain’t here no more
Everyday now I don’t know where we went, when I let go you’ll be here again
I close my eyes, count to ten and you aren’t there, you’re not there
