Lyrics

Little bird With your beak pressed against the window There are no seeds for you today Life is hard And so am I You'd better give me something So I don't die Novocaine For the soul Before I sputter out Before I sputter out Life is white And I am black Jesus and his lawyer Are coming back Oh, my darling Will you be here? Before I sputter out Before I sputter out Before I sputter - Guess who's living here With the great undead? This paint-by-numbers life Is fucking with my head Once again Life is good And I feel great 'Cause mother says I was A great mistake Novocaine For the soul You'd better give me something To fill the hole Before I sputter out Before I sputter out Before I sputter out Before I Sputter out
