I like nightmares, I like being witless
|
Watch for the newsflash, cool eyewitness
|
Eighty one, eighty two, eighty three...it's happening
|
Gotta be a fucking fool to blame TV; don't get trapped in
|
If you're lucky be the same as me
|
I like nightmares, yes I do
|
|
There's a simple way to die they call it news
|
There's a simple way to die they call it booze
|
There's an easy, quiet escape just sleep and cruise
|
It's justifiable rape they say you choose
|
|
And I like nightmares
|
I like feeling chickless
|
Flicking my lighter
|
Watching life flit west
|
Eighty one, eighty two, eighty three...it's happening
|
Can we afford to strike three, don't trust the captain
|
He's just a boy like me
|
And I like nightmares...yes I do
|
|
There's a common way to weep they say just smoke
|
You can cry yourself to sleep they say just toke
|
There's a path that never fails you can't get lost
|
Don't need roads you're on rails I'll pay the cost
|
|
And I like nightmares, yes I do
|
We were wasted, but you're only waylaid once
|
What we tasted was a voucher bag and lunch
|
We robbed their bank and we took their gold
|
And our lies in the tank must've sounded old
|
But we pleaded
|
I said, "Your honor, we're not chumps
|
After all, we only did it once!"
|
|
We like nightmares
|
They test our fitness
|
A full can of goulash
|
A taint in the midwest
|
Eighty one, eighty two, eighty three It's happening
|
Nothing floats interest free don't care what it's wrapped in
|
You could be abreast like me and I like nightmares
|
yes I do
|
I like nightmares
|
