Текст песни:

Well I never thought of myself as a subtle kind of man I dreamed I was alive one time before the world began And every time I walk the street my troubles drag my heels I could not pretend that I wasn’t lost in how it feels I’m gonna be your Elvis I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I was dead long before I was born, my mother did proclaim Send him back to Jesus, tell him I was not to blame Well well well tell me how can I refuse When every angel left in heaven bet that I would lose The sound of frozen bells and horns was all that I could hear And every word that I ignored was ringing in my ear I could not pretend that I was even half amused When all they ever told me left me shaken and confused I’m gonna be your Elvis I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I’m gonna be the man you could not dream Well I shaked out right on down the road til no one knew my name The future came and went so fast I almost bet the same I slept a guilty sleep for seven years I was a ghost Of everyone I ever loved I loved myself the most When everyone was breaking up I was breaking down I kept myself amused in high heeled shoes and sequin gowns Those voices on the radio, they all just made me numb So I covered up my ears with bandages and bubble gum And I boarded up the windows and I denied that I was me I sold my brains for science and my soul for security Now I’m a walking shadow of the fool I used to be I heard they held my funeral and there was no one there but me I’m gonna be your Elvis I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I’m gonna be your terrorist I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I’m gonna be the man you could not dream The man you could not dream The man you could not dream The man you could not dream The man you could not dream

  • [Verse 1] Well it's a big, big city and it's always the same Can never be too pretty, tell me your name Is it out of line if I were simply bold and say "Would you be mine?" Because I may be a beggar and you may be the queen I know I may be on a downer, I'm still ready to dream Though it's three o'clock, the time is just the time it takes for you to talk [Hook] So if you're lonely Why'd you say you're not lonely? Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so It's just like you to come and go And know me, no you don't even know me You're so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye A girl like you is just irresistible [Verse 2] Well it's a big, big city and the lights are all out But it's as much as I can do you know to figure you out And I must confess My heart's in broken pieces and my head's a mess And it's 4 in the morning and I'm walking along Beside the ghost of every drinker here who's ever done wrong And it's you, woo-hoo, that's got me going crazy for the things you do [Hook] So if you're crazy, I don't care, you amaze me But you're a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry And only, a girl like you could be lonely And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same A boy like me is just irresistible [Outro] So if you're lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so It's just like you to come and go And know me, no you don't even know me You're so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye A girl like you is just irresistible

Oh cause this is sick you know You know I’ll break your fingers then I’ll break your toes Y’know my dealer takes me everywhere he goes He got a pure white tan Yes he’s my every man Don’t make me sink my teeth into your bloody nose I met her, there on the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh Oh oh oh He said you’ve been stealing my best moves now for days I could’ve killed you in so many different ways But you’re so funny and I kinda like your band I hate these cunts from London they don’t try enough They think they’re mental cause they’ve tried harder stuff But they’re just rich kids yes, all in a fuckin mess I tried to kiss her but she’s lookin pretty rough I met her, there on the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh my dearest won't you let us Be my nearest don’t forget us Lye, la, la, lye Ella said you’d gladly give us Everything but wont forgive us Lye, la, la, lye La, la, lye La, la, lye I met her, there on the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh There on the backseat I met her, there on the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat Oh oh oh oh oh On the backseat
  • Let me in or let me go I swear Out there Nobody else will ever know what you’re thinking All your angels will not save your skin You’ll spin Please don’t forget that you’re the end and the beginning In your own sweet time you’ll see Your neuroses unwind There'll be no rain on your parade There'll be no devils on your mind So darling break out the laughing gas You and I know this joke soon will pass Give me your last request And I’ll see what I can do To paint your grey skies blue before I pass That’s all I ask Break out the laughing gas Well let me go or let me in, it’s time A sign Please don’t pretend you just can’t feel it All your ships are sailing, all your bridges burned Show me your heart so I can steal it In your own sweet time you’ll find That all your words will rhyme There’ll be no blood upon your tracks There’ll be no thread left to unwind So darling break out the laughing gas You and I know this joke soon will pass Give me your last request And I’ll see what I can do To paint your grey skies blue Before I pass That’s all I ask Break out the laughing gas Take all your ideals and well told tales I know a prayer that never fails Don’t hold your breath, you dreamed this dream well Just click your heels and you’ll soon break this unholy spell This hell Is only a story you tell So break out the laughing gas Let go, let this soap opera be your last Set all these fools on fire Why should you not have all that you desire Break out the laughing gas You and I know this joke soon will pass Give me your last request And I’ll see what I can do To paint your grey skies blue Before I pass That’s all I ask Break out the laughing gas
  • You wear your mask, I'll wear mine They don't come cheap, but they fit just fine You can be her and I can be him We can both sink when the rest don't swim Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long We can pretend that our fates are entwined The beautiful lies the beautiful kind Everybody knows that the sun still sets And everybody gives and everybody gets Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long I can be the one that you just can't shake Till you swear that your eyes go blind We can disappear till the sun burns a hole In the life that we left behind And I just won't stop till my heart gives way And you and I are a long lost myth There's nothing very much that I wouldn't do To be the last of the men that you romanced with The last of the men that you romanced with Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long You wear your mask I'll wear mine They don't come cheap but they fit just fine We can pretend that our fates are entwined The beautiful lies the beautiful kind
  • See that girl walking out amongst the fireflies In competition with no vision running clockwise Watch her glide through the panic of the headlights In conversation she’s salvation for the right price Krakatoa Eiffel Tower See how she gets busy in the magic hour Wall of China Frankenstein A miracle of science but a pantomime She’s ambition She’s striptease When she calls your name you fall to your knees She’s indelible Haute couture You’re the malady of which she’s the cure She’s indestructible See that girl making money from the get go Inside the bubble she’s the double of her ego Watch her slide through the panic of the headlights In conversation she’s salvation for the right price Prince of Darkness Chairman Mao Even though you’re dead to her she’ll show you anyhow Queen of England Helen of Troy She doesn’t even mind if you’re a girl or a boy She’s ambition She’s strip tease When she calls your name you fall to your knees She’s indelible Haute couture You’re the malady of which she’s the cure She’s indestructible She’s ambition She’s strip tease When she calls your name you fall to your knees She’s indelible Haute couture You’re the malady of which she’s the cure She’s indestructible She’s indestructible She’s indestructible She’s indestructible She’s indestructible
