[00:33.02]The snow on the screen we're going light speed tonight
[00:40.16]Like Bonnie & Clyde except we don't die tonight
[00:47.05]And the blister packs coats and crumpled up notes appear
[00:54.12]It's a break from the swill, the piss they distill around here
[01:01.28]A break from the swill, the piss they distill around here
[01:09.50]Lift off of this Metropolis
[01:16.44]When this town comes down,
[01:20.85]I wish I wish
[01:23.68]My first degree emergency
[01:30.06]Is kettled by your cavalry
[01:32.60]
[01:34.17]I wish I wish
[01:40.80]The cash machine queens when ambulance teams arrive
[01:44.88]
[01:47.39]In their skeletal jeans they take Refugees for wives
[01:54.53]When their collars get felt their glorified belts won't keep 'em warm
[01:58.00]
[02:02.08]And we'll run up the strand, your wrist in my hand
[02:05.16]We know we're born
[02:12.24]Yeah I know I'm born
[02:19.35]Yeah I know I'm born
[02:24.17]Lift off of this Metropolis
[02:31.10]When this town comes down
[02:34.73]I wish I wish
[02:38.27]My first degree emergency
[02:43.59]
[02:44.67]Is kettled by your cavalry
[02:48.77]I wish I wish
[03:55.57]And when all of your friends are my enemies
[03:58.52]Wishing me gone as I'm running away
[04:02.59]And my only defence is the worst of me
[04:05.80]Out in the open for all to survey
[04:09.55]When you settle for less than I promised you
[04:12.99]Knowing that all of our barrels are scraped
[04:16.61]If it seems like it's harder to say to you
[04:20.08]It's cause some things are just harder to say
[04:37.62]Lift off of this Metropolis
[04:44.25]When this town comes down
[04:48.02]I wish I wish
[04:52.42]
