Girl in the phone-box
In my home
Right from the first start
In my bones
I haven't got time
You ask
What you here for?
Take me to the bathroom (... back room?)
And open the door

It's all I care about
And I found
It's all I hear about

I can't figure out what
I wanna wait for
I forged all the answers
And now I want more
I won't step back and watch
What I paid for
Wait until the mask's off
And take it too far

Its all I care about
And I found
Its all I hear (I'm here?) about

Straight from the camera
In my heart
Forged all the answers
Right from the start
I haven't got time
You ask
What you here for?
I won't step back and watch
What I paid for

You shouldn’t have to pay for this
‘Cause you didn’t ask for it
You shouldn’t have to pay for this
Living is a counterfeit
You shouldn’t have to pay for this
‘Cause you didn’t ask for it
You shouldn’t have to pay for this
Living is a counterfeit

You tie me to the telephone
Make me be a slave to it
Watching you on nights alone
Taking down the deficit
You tie me to the telephone
Make me be a slave to it
Watching all the nights alone
Taking down the deficit

All you’ve ever known
Is what they told you
All you’ve ever known
Is what they told you
And they told you
That you weren’t safe
Sold you to the sun

Picking up removables
Attatching all the implements
Walking to the ritual
Clearing all the evidence
Picking up removables
Attatching all the implements
Walking to the ritual
Clearing all the evidence

All you’ve ever known
Is what they told you
All you’ve ever known
Is what they told you
And they told you
That you weren’t safe
Sold you to the sun

You should say (see?) it
Everyday
The more (??)
Is the same

It's not for us to say
But why not?
‘Cause we've got

Another petrol fire
Another dead excuse
Another crumpled spine*
Another year of abuse

It's not for us to say
It's not for us to say
But why not?

We went down
To the bank (/bay?)
Turned round
Looked back

We went around the flag
And for what?
‘Cause they've got

Another petrol fire
Another dead excuse
Another crumpled spine
Another year of abuse

We went around the flag
But for what?
