Get Away

What did those record people want?

They said they're gonna cut me a record

They said that they could make my voice sound breathy and sweet

They told me I should write songs

That will relate to the people

And I can sing 'em on stage and just pretend that's my life

I'll satisfy them

With a boot on my throat

As I lie on the ground

She says it's not enough

And she's wishing me luck

What if we don't have a choice

Maybe we can't make it happen

It only happens when you don't care if it happens at all

I guess it's for my own good

That it won't happen to me

'Cause if it happened for me maybe I'd just get really bored

I'll satisfy them

With a boot on my throat

As I lay on the ground

She says it's not enough

I had a moment

But it's slipping away

I try to stand up

She says that it's not enough

So I guess I'll leave

I gotta get away

I'll drive out into the desert and become a lady lizard

I'm alright

I think that's okay

I'm getting tired of the city

All the lights are blinding me

I'll satisfy them

With a boot on my throat

As I lay on the ground

She says it's not enough

I had a moment

But it's slipping away

I try to stand up

She says that it's not enough
