Empty Lives - Graham Parker[00:00:00]
Written by:Graham Parker[00:00:01]
I'm just a tick in a box on a questionnaire[00:00:13]
Another moment that flashes into nowhere[00:00:16]
A brand name on a pill that get's you there[00:00:19]
Uh uh[00:00:22]
I'm getting nothing and expecting oblivion[00:00:24]
The past ain't even worth livin' in[00:00:28]
It's just a nail that keeps being driven in[00:00:31]
I'm cold-blooded and completely relaxed[00:00:40]
I'm breaking legs and avoiding the facts[00:00:43]
On the up escalator going down all the cracks[00:00:46]
Yeah[00:00:49]
Uh uh[00:00:50]
You are the dummies of another frightened nation[00:00:52]
I am a candidate for elevation[00:00:55]
But when I woke up this morning I'd lost sensation[00:00:58]
All sensation[00:01:03]
So get them[00:01:05]
Get him[00:01:07]
But don't get me[00:01:09]
Uh uh uh[00:01:11]
Can't hear[00:01:12]
Your cries[00:01:13]
So don't get me to fill up your empty lives[00:01:15]
Empty lives[00:01:23]
Your empty lives[00:01:26]
Empty lives[00:01:29]
I'll be obedient there is no escape[00:01:33]
Forms to fill time to kill love death and rape[00:01:36]
Sleep baby sleep don't let nothing awaken you[00:01:39]
Uh uh[00:01:43]
Don't look for tomorrow it's given you the slip[00:01:45]
That's all contained on a silicon chip[00:01:48]
I'm losing shape for the eighties[00:01:50]
Feeling everybody's grip slip[00:01:52]
Everybody's grip slip[00:01:56]
So get them[00:01:58]
Get him[00:02:00]
But don't get me[00:02:02]
Uh uh uh[00:02:04]
Can't hear[00:02:05]
Your cries[00:02:06]
So don't get me to fill up your empty lives[00:02:08]
Empty lives[00:02:16]
Just there waiting to be filled[00:02:20]
With someone else's stronger will[00:02:23]
Just can't reason to survive[00:02:26]
With empty empty[00:02:29]
You got the empty empty[00:02:32]
You got the empty empty[00:02:35]
Empty lives[00:02:38]
Yeah[00:02:41]
Bring me water bring me cocaine[00:03:04]
Bring me something lethal[00:03:07]
Something that leaves a stain[00:03:08]
But please don't make me feel that emptiness again[00:03:10]
Feel that emptyness again[00:03:14]
So get them[00:03:17]
Get him[00:03:19]
But don't get me[00:03:21]
Uh uh uh[00:03:23]
Get fat it's your size[00:03:24]
But don't get me to fill up your empty[00:03:27]
