Lyrics

Broken

[Verse 1]

Grab yourself a partner

Swing 'em around the town

Walk the dog and do-se-do

Before you tie her down

Anesthetize and fantasize

Watch your dreams come true

A riding crop, a lollipop

A tank of nitrous too

[Refrain]

Because you're broken

[Verse 2]

Bang! Bang! Boo-de-yay

Broken down and done

Triple X and filthy sex

An overloaded gun

Discipline and bondage

Leather mask and nuns

A topless girl

A string of pearls

A wad of bubble cum

[Chorus]

Inconsequential

An angel's broken wing

Kept confidential

We keep inside our secret things

[Guitar Solos]

[Verse 3]

What's the price of pleasure?

What's the price of pain?

Rapture or deliverance

Beneath a golden rain

Swap and swing and sissy spank

The middle-class defined

Or those who swim the deep end

With sex and death combined

[Chorus]

Inconsequential

An angel's broken wing

Kept confidential

We keep inside our secret things

[Outro]

Because you're broken

Because you're broken

Because you're broken

Because you're broken

Because you're broken...
