歌詞
[Verse 1]
Born to multiply
Born to gaze into night skies
All you want's one more Saturday
Well, look here, until then
They're gonna buy your life's time
So, keep your wick in the air and your feet in the fetters
Till the day
[Verse 2]
We come in doin' cartwheels
We all crawl out by ourselves
And your shape on the dance floor
Will have me thinkin' such filth to gouge my eyes
[Verse 3]
You'll be damned to be one of us, girl
Faced with the dodo's conundrum
I felt like I could just fly
But nothin' happened every time I tried
Woo-ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 4]
A duotone on the wall
A selfless fool who hoped he'd save us all
Never dreamt of such sterile hands
You keep 'em folded in your lap
Or raise them up to beg for scraps
You know he's holdin' you down with the tips of his fingers
Just the same
[Verse 5]
Will you be pulled from the ocean
Oh, just a minute too late?
Or changed by a potion
To find a handsome young mate for you to love?
[Verse 6]
You'll be damned to pining through the windowpanes
You know you'd trade your life for any ordinary joe
Well, do it now or grow old
Your nightmares only need a year or two to unfold
[Verse 7]
Been alone since you were 21
You haven't laughed since January
You try and make like this is so much fun
But we know it to be quite contrary
[Verse 8]
La-la, la-la, la
La, la, la
[Verse 9]
Dare to be one of us, girl
Facing the android's conundrum
I felt like I should just cry
[Verse 10]
But nothin' happens every time I take one on the chin
Your Himmler in your coat, you don't know how long I've been
Watchin' the lantern dim, starved of oxygen
So, give me your hand and let's jump out the window
[Verse 11]
La, la, la
La, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la
La
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la
