Empty Lives

Graham Parker, The Rumour
앨범 : The Up Escalator (2016 Expanded Edit.)
I'm just a tick in a box on a questionnaire
another moment that flashes into nowhere
a brand name on a pill that get's you there, ah ah ah ah
I'm getting nothing and expecting oblivion
the past aint even worth livin in
its just a nail that keeps being driven in ah ah ah ah
I'm cold blooded and completely relaxed
I'm breaking legs and avoiding the facts
on the up escalator going down all the cracks, yeah ah ah ah
You are the dummies of another frightened nation
I am a candidate for elevation
but when i woke up this morning I'd lost all sensation
all sensation
So get them, get him, but don't get me
ah uh ah ah can't hear your cries
so don't get me to fill up your empty lives
i i i i ives Empty lives
Your empty lives Empty lives
Be obedient, there is no escape
Forms to fill, time to kill love death and rape
Sleep baby sleep, don't let nothing awaken you ahhhhhhhh
Don't look for tomorrow, it's given you the slip
that's all contained on a silicon chip
I'm losing shape for the eighties feeling everybody's grip slip
everybody's grip slip
So get them, get him, but don't get me
ah uh ah ah can't hear your cries
so don't get me to fill up your empty lives
i i i i ives Empty lives
Just there waiting to be filled
with someone else's stronger will
Just can't reason to survive with empty empty
you got the empty empty, You got the empty empty
empty livesYeah
Bring me water, bring me cocaine
Bring me something lethal, something that leaves a stain
But please don't make me feel that emptiness again
Feel the emptyness again
So get them, get him, but don't get me
ah uh ah ah get fat it's your size but
don't get me to fill up your empty
don't get me to fill up your empty
don't get me to fill up your empty lives
i i i i i i i ives Your empty lives
Your empty lives
