Parallel Lines (live at Leeds Sound City 1996)

[Verse 1]

Suck on this

Dropping the bits

Topping the hits

I've walked miles to be with you

Listen to me

On my hands and knees

Feeding my greed

And all the while I think it’s true

[Refrain]

It's a maximum high

With my parallel lines

[Verse 2]

The mirror is long

It's a way to belong

And it’s keeping me strong

And all the style is showing through

It's one day of trust

Three years of lust

And it's my life or bust

And do you feel the same things too?

[Refrain]

It's a maximum high

With my parallel lines

[Verse 3]

You're my queen

And you're my machine

A fine dream team

I'm feeling bright, I feel all new

Yes, that was a joke

Every time that you spoke

Until you finally choked

And I'll be ruling my own roost

[Refrain]

It’s a maximum high

With my parallel lines

[Verse 4]

I could fax you at work

And pick you up in my Merc

And dig deep in your dirt

It’s thе in thing to do

So suck on this

And I'm making my lists

And I’m topping the hits

I've walked milеs to be with you

[Chorus]

It's a maximum high

With my parallel lines

Shaking off me

Too high

[Verse 5]

You're a millionaire

And you’ve been everywhere

And you've done every dare

Can you see my point of view?

And it's looks like you know

Where you're going to go

Where you blow all your dough

And all the while I think it's true

[Chorus]

It's a maximum high

With my parallel lines

Shaking off me

It's my whirlwind

And it's my last fling

[Verse 6]

It's the devil in me

And I won't set it free

'Cause it's locked in me

And all the style is showing through

It's my honeymoon

I'll take it this afternoon

Egg and spoon to the moon

I'm feeling bright, I feel all new

[Chorus]

It's a maximum high

With my parallel lines

Shaking off me

It's my whirlwind

And it's my last fling

Shaking off me

Now I know it's time

For a maximum high

Shaking off me

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

It's a maximum high

With my parallel lines

Shaking off me

It's my whirlwind

And it's my last fling

Shaking off me

Now I know it's time

For a maximum high

Shaking off me

[Outro]

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better

Getting better
