The Best Bits

Tell me what I have to do to take the floor from under you If life is just a credit card and love is just a lucky charm Then hang me from the brightest star I wanna see the best part All the tectonic plates shattering like dinner plates And everybody huddling tapping on their dead phones Trying to let the world know what everybody else knows All the pretty dollar signs, all the little drug lines All the pictures that you take just to delеte anyway The best bits Arе hidden Let's shrink this world Down to this room The best bits The best bits Tell me what I have to do to get the little chemical Kamikaze overdose happiness in overload All the little microphones the humming of the dial tones Tanning in the blue light I want to get it just right All the babies being born who don't know they're in for You shoulda seen the big game your favourite player just scored Swimming in a fishnet, playing on the internet Telling people what you think smiling while we miss The best bits The best bits One day I'll be exorcised out of all your lives And get a moment to myself where I'm not making up my mind And all the benefits can disconnect I'll just be outside Pushing heavy on the scales, always heavy in my mind I don't wanna hear what you are always thinking all the time Wanna wait inside the silence, the reflection in your eyes Compression of the peaks while you wallow in the pits The attention deficits, oh, I don't wanna miss the best bits The best bits The best bits The best bits The best bits The best bits
