Lyrics

I got body parts for some dream machine
In the shadowlands where the towers lean
I got silver sin in my oil-black heart
I've no wasted time, I've got no head start
'Cause I'm a junkyard king building up your heap
From rejected treasure that you got cheap
Well, tell me baby about your golden pain
For rejected love that you threw away
Well come up and see my plasma torch
Break you down to your skin and bone
Lift up your heart to this saggy pile
Wrap you up and send you home
Send you home!
Uh, don't urinate in my microwave, do it over there
Well, the rain is black in my part of town
It's a one-way track that I'm travelling down
I'm gonna fill my heart with a silver load
I'm a work of load, I'm a wasteland toad
I was a clean boy too, with a smart disguise
But I always knew that my truth would rise
So I held my breath and I dug below
To this underworld, to this broken show
Come up and see my plasma torch
Break you down to your skin and bone
Lift up your heart to this saggy pile
Wrap you up and send you–
I'll send you home!
It's desolation, rows and rows of wrecks
Engine parts-clamation, I pay my respects
We'll get some television, muckin' household trash
In the dirt and drivel where I keep my cash
When I was cold and my heart was numb
I was sold and old more than I was young
No house or children for someone like me
My soul is empty, I'm on the city heap
Come up and see my plasma torch
Break you down to your skin and bone
Lift up your heart to this saggy pile
Wrap you up and send you home
Come up and see my plasma torch
Break you down to your skin and bone
Lift up your heart to this saggy pile
Wrap you up and send you–
I'll send you home!
This ain't no life'n f'someone like me
I vote with greed
Man, I was mistaken when I was younger
Taken from the rightful home
Yeah, wait till I meet the royal family
I'm gonna– I'm gonna bring them down tonight
Baby, then you're gonna want me
Yeah, then you're gonna want my children
I'm gonna slap you, man
But I do the best I can
Yeah, I got respect
Well, ya never know what connects
Wooow!
