Shelf Life |
How many A&R men does it take to change a light bulb? |
I’ll get back to you on that |
How many spells and dollars does it take to make the magic |
Of pulling legends from a hat? |
Will they take another sucker for an undersell? |
Regarding them with compliments and muskatelle |
A honeymoon in Vegas in a plush hotel |
Well, that’s a sad town in the morning light |
How many bullets in the back does it take to kill a singing cowboy? |
And how much more of this bullshit can you take |
From the charming envoy? |
When you’re making with the ballpoint on the dotted line |
The Devil’s in his heaven and your hair sublime |
You fit the mold for stardom and the big bells chime |
But it’s gold leaf on a wild, wild, wind |
And they’re serving up your future with a twist of lime |
Paying you in dollars for the perfect crime |
And you’re scratching off the silver for a nail of grime |
And pissing in that bitter wind |
Last month’s color you’ve passed your sell by date |
And your days are numbered |
What is you shelf life? |
What is you shelf life? |
What is you shelf life? |
What is you shelf life? |
