Speed

The devil The devil The devil The devil gave me everything Now I have nothing left He listens to my stories and he picks out which ones best And when I start to panic he plucks it from my chest I'd say it's quite mechanic He'd say it's what sells best And then it's to my bedroom Hanging words and mind Ugly little couplets Take up little time But there's no stopping growing There's no space to bleed Like sunflowers on speed I got someone to be Faster than a choir boy's voice Breaking into deadly choices Running with the right-wrong boys World is turning redrum-coitus Faster than a winter's night Breaking into bleak mid-summer There's no stopping growing now Faster than a garage drummer Elephant and Castle Sunny, full of lust Smoke it to the ashes And play among the dust And if we're doing good They'll tell us that we're greedy And if we're bad well then we're needing feeding But there's no stopping growing There's no space to bleed Like sunflowers on speed I got someone to be Faster than a choir boy's voice Breaking into deadly choices Running with the right-wrong boys World is turning redrum-coitus Faster than a winter's night Breaking into bleak mid-summer There's no stopping growing now Faster than a garage drummer I've often met the barman I think that he's convinced That I'm the second coming Of everything he's missed He's so eager to tell me I've got to tell him straight I'm choking on my drinking I leave a bitter taste
