No, the licence plates were covered with mud. They took tyres and gas. (Tell him they took all the cash.) They robbed the cash register too. I got word that the police had them bottled up. But they slipped through again. (I wonder if the baby is born yet.) Poor Joan. They're being blamed for every crime committed in the country [Sample 3: Germaine Greer and Graham Chapman] [Incomprehensible] [Part II: Pornography] [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] A hand in my mouth, a life spills into the flowers We all look so perfect as we all fall down In an electric glare, the old man cracks with age She found his last picture in the ashes of the fire [Verse 2] An image of the queen echoes 'round the sweating bed Sour yellow sounds inside my head In books and films and in life and in heaven The sound of slaughter as your body turns [Refrain] But it's too late But it's too late [Verse 3] One more day like today and I'll kill you A desire for flesh and real blood And I'll watch you drown in the shower Push my life through your open eyes [Outro] I must fight this sickness Find a cure I must fight this sickness
