Better Of Dead

There was a face on a hoarding that someone had drawn on

And just enough time for the night to pass by without warning

Away in the distance there s a blue flashing light

Someone s in trouble somewhere tonight

As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse

The wind blows away all of yesterday s news

Well they ve locked up their daughters and they battened the hatches
They always could find us but they never could catch us
Through the grease streaked windows of an all night cafe
We watched the arrested get taken away
And that cigarette haze has ecology heat
As the s and the drunks filed in from the street


`Cause the steams in the boiler, the coals in the fire

If you ask how I am then I ll just say inspired

If the thorn of a rose is the thorn in your side

Then you re better off dead if you haven t yet died
