lyrics

A Life Saving Operation

All the shoots died one by one.
And all the girls howled at their doom.
Hold on to your tune, always gets you through.
Blue bruise suits you.
Don’t look now, you got a cheap crown.
Turn that frown upside down.
They’ll never let you be you.
Who knew life could be so cruel?

A clear conviction, a blast.
A lifesaving operation.
Bringing your temper back.
Run away from it, run away from it, run away from it all
…until you find yourself running headlong into a wall.

And all the roots tied themselves in knots.
A twisted fist. A community oppressed.
Coming together as one to prepare for the worst.
Hold on to your friends.
Save you in the end.
Ruby shoes, through and through.
Don’t look down, a permanent frown, turns your crown upside down.
The problem with you is you.
Why d’you have to be so cruel?

A clear conviction, a blast.
A lifesaving operation.
Bringing your temper back.
Run away from it, run away from it, run away from it all
…until you find yourself running headlong into a wall.
