Blood of a Young Wolf

ten thousand horses, sable island, endless summer
oh my god i'm hot to steal, beside myself and friendless number
i ain't got no culture, nothing, dirty words, but that don't count
flight attendants, waitresses, superstition, good amount
there's work to do, hell to pay, memories and fingerprints
calling papa ignorance
and i don't wanna go, sick and tired
zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, zoom, kick, persuasion, tech
it's an egg and spoon race, slow and steady, desert highway, a bientot
still i'm stuck, i cant afford it, picture postcard, small momento
echo, shadow, echo, shadow, sterling silver, burning furnace
frozen nowhere, just a kid, i had a friend named deadly earnest
cross my heart and hope to die, stick a needle in my arm
praise the heavens, call the cops, relax, there's no cause for alarm
diamond rings and little babies, startlements and miracles
i remember pretty faces so severe and lyrical
i'm talking amelia earhart, neko case and frida kahlo
all alone, the way it should be, i don't even need a shadow
seeds of wisdom, found no purchase, we don't even have a chance
birthday party, armageddon, long stemmed roses, avalanche
broken fingers, going nowhere fast and screeching to a halt
all that work for nothin', uh oh, whipping boy it's all my fault
zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, zoom, kick, persuasion, tech
zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, tech, tech, tech
i don't wanna go to pieces, easy going, afraid to fly and so i'm running
catching fish and chopping wood, the revolution, slow time coming
i don't know what else to do, cross my fingers, teach the children
read your fortunes, storm the studios, come on all ye faithful pilgrims
no more same old song and dance, some good ideas get overplayed
i eat my breakfast, ride my bike, a knife between my shoulderblades
see i'm a man of many problems up against some scary odds
we kill, we hide, we all fall down, idiots love to bury gods
it doesn't happen overnight though, never, still i'm filled with wonder
lonely like a tightrope walker, hitchhiker, long distance runner
zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, good night for you bad night for me
but i still love you lying down, k i s s i n g
not bad, not bad, not bad at all i tried your shoes on
cigarettes and crucifixes, ingmar bergman, alphonse mouzon
really boring modern music, really boring modern girl
get me out of here, i'm drowning, i don't like this modern world
anti-intellect and marketing, pretty, pretty, who needs talent
crying eyes, we're so outnumbered, fight for the right to remain silent
what do i know, who am i, my two left feet my big dumb face
i'd do the same if i had the chance, cheat the system, rig the race
it's all one big misunderstanding, inside out i turn my coat
don't look back don't move a muscle, one false move that's all she wrote
zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, zoom, kick, persuasion, tech
zoom, kick, persuasion, tech, tech, tech, tech
