Rock & Roll Suicide

Not rated yet.

Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger,
then your cigarette
The wall-to-wall's calling, it lingers, then you
forget
You're a rock 'n' roll suicide

You're too old to lose it, too young to
choose it
And the clocks waits so patiently on your
song
You walk past the cafe but you don't eat
when you've lived too long
You're a rock 'n' roll sucide

Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble
across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry
home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow
Don't let the milk floats ride your mind
You're so natural - religiously unkind

Oh no love! you're not alone
You're watching yourself but you're too
unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I
could only make you care
Oh no love! you're not alone

No matter what or who you've been
No matter when or where you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share I'll help you with the pain
You're not alone just turn on with me
You're not alone let's turn on and be
You're not alone gimme your hands
You're wonderful gimme your hands
You're wonderful gimme your hands
