About the Artist
Lyrics
Wearing SPF 3000 for the ultraviolet rays Made it to the island on the last of the outbound planes (Ah-ah) Got a trunk full of Simone and Céline, and of course, my magazines I'm gonna live out my days Won't somebody, anybody, be the leader of a new regime? Free the keepers of the burnt-out scene another day Lust and paranoia reign supreme We need the leader of a new regime.
