Lakehurst 05:42

Lakehurst frankfurt, overseas was fine thunderstorms weathered well hours behind schedule the landing late AM becomes PM dancing on the shifting winds shimmering, leaking hydrogen static sparks, an engine goes your fiery end a hissing sound, canting, sinking let the lines fly, rigger you're standing still, the ropes are down what's this flame, this shift dancing on the shifting winds shimmering, leaking hydrogen static sparks, an engine goes your fiery end pull up skyliner your era's gone high landing in to N.A.S. the skies were grey, the winds were wrong seconds, you had seconds down pull up skyliner the era's gone last landing in to N.A.S. the skies were grey, the wind was wrong seconds, you had seconds down dancing on the shifting winds shimmering, leaking hydrogen static sparks, an engine goes your fiery end

Jaywalking in Hell old rip van winkle never had it better than looking in to your blue eyes i'll take the plunge i'll get it down and leave when the money runs out old rip woke up and said clearly to me he don't care he's a man my dear i hear them now those old friends of mine but they don't hear me any more all those dreams and plans you had how you were good to go it doesn't matter any more 'cos you were too damn slow all those mates you had and loved they don't know where you are you hear them all above you now their feet close in to cars chorus you can be a star in the cemetery, baby and all those ghosts that buried me are walking jaywalking, jaywalking in hell it's not like you'll remember much about the day you came it's more like you'll know each detail the flowers, then the pain you sold your soul to the man you know got bought in to the master plan he wore you down for a piece of the crown and you never had a chance watch it now don't get too near don't slide on that slippery grey slope it's all downhill, you'll lose your will and they won't care about you no more chorus you can be a star in the cemetery baby and all those ghosts that buried me are walking jaywalking, jaywalking in hell

you pushed yourself out there today with another clinic snip another small cut to your dignity look in the mirror baby, get a grip that's the signpost ahead of you but the next stop ain't your twilight zone i don't wanna be a puppet just like them flashing on the pages of those magazines i got this little emergency a mascara emergency maybe you can't look in the mirror no more maybe that aging thing is just too much i buy all my make-up at the 5-n-dime i don't need your surgeon's knife, i'm doing fine your freak show frozen face is scaring me you're the number 1 botox attraction guaranteed i don't wanna be a puppet just like them dancing on the pages of those magazines i got this little emergency a mascara emergency long-legged, slim-hipped, double-D that's what you show me on M-TV billboards, magazines and TV shows botox, lipo, implants, a new nose i don't wanna look like that or look like them tripping off the pages of normality slipping from the image of society slipping from the image of society i got this little emergency a mascara emergency

How many chihauhaus did you lose little girl? (little hieress in paris) While your handlers scurried all around you? How are things going in your rehab today? (little rocker in Chelsea) Did your lucky break not suit you enough? How many times ligging it behind the wheel? (little Hollywood star) Did they like your pretty hair down in the cells? Do you have to score on the street? (little princess in Monaco) Can you even walk to a steady beat? CHORUS Heavy hangs the head of the one who wore The beautiful crown the night before All dressed up and nowhere to go Your cruel shoes girl, they suit you well Beauty beauty look at you I wish to god I had it too I could rip you to shreds while doing my nails Petty Pussy "it girl" of our times Are the young boys still flocking to you? (old queenie in London) Are you growing old with the grace that we need? (madonna madonna) How many producers write your Number 1 songs? (New York extravaganza) How many years were you touring in a van? Why do you let those men beat you down? (little school girl) Why are your daddy and the ex controlling you? Does it hurt your eyes when the strobe lights flash? (love the paparazzi) Is it painful when they quote your words in the press? Bridge amy-lindsey-paris-maddie-britney-nicole-courtney-gaga amy-lindsey-paris-maddie-britney-nicole-courtney-gaga CHORUS Heavy hangs the head of the one who wore The beautiful crown the night before All dressed up and nowhere to go Your cruel shoes girl, they suit you well Beauty beauty look at you I wish to god I could buy it too I could rip you to shreds while doing my nails Petty Pussy "it girl" of our times
