Flotsam & Jetsam: Never To Reveal Lyrics

Everybody's watching, none of them I've ever met
Starring in the headlines no good news is death
Threats fly through the airmail, e-mail and express
Fax instructions for the bomb
A bone breaking game of chess

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Pushed too far by numbers
Payments way past due
Additional tack on late charge
Who'll be screwing who

Screwed my head so tightly
Feels like it's gonna snap at the neck
If you're gonna cheat with your own cards
At least you could shuffle the deck

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Sweat it out in walls that both my shoulders touch
If I hadn't lost everything else
My mind wouldn't matter so much
Backed up on a pay way, free way, blue lights closing fast
I was promised before my eyes
I'd see my life flashing past

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Here comes the message from the antennae
Who knows how transmissions came
I've got the license a bag of passports
Even I don't know who I am
Howling bullets fly by so often
I can hear them buzz
I've lived in deserts, I've warred on cities
I don't even know where I was

Remember Israel and Korea
Kuwait's the best time I ever had
Had an accomplice who knew of nothing
I killed the best friend I had
Can't be too careful, can't use computers
They're gonna catch my disease
I work alone don't trust my own mother
Scratched out like ticks and fleas

Dial double zero
Call me whenever you have got a war
Home's where the guns are
My bed's the ammo and no one comes to my door
Dial double zero
Wherever you start a war

More of me going than I've got coming
They'll squeeze my blood through the skin
I shouldn't have wasted my education
The fucking trouble I'm in
I've got your had on, I've got your suitcase
I'm you when you're gone
Out here thinking like
I'm never me too long

Dial double zero
Call me whenever you have got a war
Home's where the guns are
My bed's the ammo and no one comes to my door
Dial double zero
Wherever you start a war

Everybody's watching, none of them I've ever met
Starring in the headlines no good news is death
Threats fly through the airmail, e-mail and express
Fax instructions for the bomb
A bone breaking game of chess

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Pushed too far by numbers
Payments way past due
Additional tack on late charge
Who'll be screwing who

Screwed my head so tightly
Feels like it's gonna snap at the neck
If you're gonna cheat with your own cards
At least you could shuffle the deck

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Sweat it out in walls that both my shoulders touch
If I hadn't lost everything else
My mind wouldn't matter so much
Backed up on a pay way, free way, blue lights closing fast
I was promised before my eyes
I'd see my life flashing past

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go

Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go
