Will you wait for me
When you get there?
"˜Cos I think that I'm
several paces behind
The old lady
In the road
Swore today
For the first time
Will you let me know
When you get there?
"˜Cos I'm getting scared
And I want your skin
I felt stupid
When I heard her swear
Everything changed
Everyone knows it
Knows how to do it
They've seen it in cinemas
Read it in Spain
They've seen it on flyers
And heard it on radios
Rehashed and respun
But always the same
Always the same
Always the same
Will you hang me up when you get there?
Spine on a hook
Slicing my heart
Will you spit at me
When I'm dying?
Will you fuck me
When I'm dead?
Everyone fears it
Fears that they've got it
Fears that it's got them
And won't let them go
They've seen it on flyers
And heard it on radios
Shrug it off always
And hope it's a joke
Everyone knows it
Knows how to do it
They've seen it in cinemas
Read it in Spain
They've seen it on flyers
And heard it on radios
Rehashed and respun
But always the same
Always the same
Always the same
In the back lane of your garden
I will hear you in the dark
I will hear you in the dark
