24 |
| you are watching a programme for exactly an hour |
| all of these hours they will add up to a day |
| you will sit there till they’re done but there are 24 to play |
| there’ll be rims around your eyelids by the 7th or the 8th |
| but if you go to sleep tonight you will be older when you wake |
| and you say one man is the parachute and the other is the knife that cuts the |
| brake |
| first we were born then we ran slowly out of luck |
| you are still not charles bukowski and i am not diane cluck |
| and i would suck the life from you if there was any left to suck |
| and i would love you if you told me there was something there to love |
| i would marry you for money |
| i would marry you for money |
| i would marry you for money or for luck |
| i would marry you for money but i don’t suppose you’ll ever have enough |
| well the man on the screen he has done more in a minute |
| than you have achieved in your whole entire life |
| when you finally realise i was the best thing you had in it we’ll be closing up your eyelids on the bed or once you die |
| and i’ll be sorry if it happens to you |
| sorry if it happens to you |
| sorry if it happens to you but |
| i guess if one man is the cancer then his death is just the knife that makes |
| the cut |
| 24 for every year that we have slept |
| day by day into the neck of the abyss |
| and i am 24 today i don’t believe i’ll sit |
| through another year of this while you are sewing up your lips |
| and i’ll be sorry that you happened to me sorry that you happened to me sorry that you happened to me but |
| they say that one man is the accident the other is the hand that stops the blood |
| and i am looking for the other one i’m looking for the blade to make the cut |
| oh if one man is the accident i’m looking for a hand to stop the blood |
