Selling exes down the river
|
Every Katie's got her price
|
And the details make you shiver
|
But it's hard to escape,
|
When your head is stuck in vice
|
|
Because nothing matters
|
In the self-obsession age,
|
Where they dare you not to notice
|
But it's everywhere,
|
In shocking colour on the page
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
In the magazines
|
(It's in the magazines)
|
Staring out at me
|
(Staring out at me)
|
Out of my TV
|
Other people's lives
|
Pixelated lives
|
Just like yours and mine
|
|
Every weekend I bear witness
|
To the social suicides
|
To the thief who stayed for breakfast
|
To the poster child,
|
Screwing everybody's wife
|
|
Yeah, it's just a story
|
But it keeps me hanging on
|
For the needy soul,
|
The glory-hole confessional
|
I've got to see what's going down
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Read the headlines
|
Hear the sirens
|
I'm reunited
|
Out of rehab again
|
|
[Chorus] x2
|
