Rattlebrain
sticky running shoes
rattlebrain
on the pretext
for doing nothing
glaring red
bloodshot eyes
used to watch the kids
play round till it's dark.
didn't get the wake up call
quite in time
but you got out
and don't get back
no way no way no way!
"It's so strange waking up
with a fresh feeling
that I wouldn't trade for gold
time is money but I ignore
the price tags on my acts
haven't got the guts to gamble and
I don't need no lovey-dovey blinders"
"('cause)
usually I'm hit
by a rapid-fire Cupid
and the cost of his ignorance he shall recoup.
for playfully breaking down my fences
following me around and
ravaging my senses so,
he must pay, pay."
out of range now...
a little less enthusiastic than ever before
talking too much
about everything or nothing at all
rattlebrain! rattlebrain...
You clearly have a problem
which is emphasized hungover
you like yourself too much when you are drunk
and too little when you're sober
"Always tempted to give in
cause my subversive cravings
are killing time
like a genocide
but recently I've started to recall
forgotten memories
I look sharp now and stay focused"
Used to watch the kids
play round till it's dark.
in a rush back home to things
you knew too well,
you fed from it
didn't get the wake up call
quite in time
but you got out
and don't get back
