Self-Defense |
| Cheekbones and hormones |
| Your only self-defense |
| Lying through dinner |
| And your rock and roll teeth again |
| You’ve harbored a coward |
| Fed him full of broth |
| This nocturnal sadness |
| Leave you pale as this tablecloth |
| Careful don’t you spill your dinner |
| That would be a good defense |
| Then you wouldn’t have to sit here |
| On the fence |
| Cheekbones and hormones |
| He’s the accidental man |
| Tell you in a stage whisper |
| About the boy who cried benefit |
| As the poet drags the darkness |
| Within him to the light |
| It’s only in self-defense |
| That they drag you out into the night |
| Careful don’t you spill your dinner |
| That would be your best defense |
| Careful what you wish for |
| An idiot and a genius |
| Standing up to dine |
| Breaking manmade laws |
| Cause I only follow those that are divine |
| And only when you’re chased |
| Do you ever run fast |
| And it’s wrong to commit a suicide |
| It’s only in self-defense |
