Lyrics
He's not a monster
He's just a spineless man
He's got no spine, you know
He flaps like a flag in the sun
He's getting it done, uh-huh
I'm getting sick of all the stories they're selling
And I can't wait to focus on anything else
Oh, anything else
So I bought a tie
And I bought a suit
Oh, I sure looked cute
And I sure looked cute
You watch the news, but I, I find it dull
The way those Talking Heads go on and on
And I just can't keep
My mind on it all
The slimy bastards, they, they lounge like snakes
While in the sticks, the brokers awake
From such easy dreams
Make it look so easy now
So I bought a tie
And I bought a suit
And saw right through it
And saw right through it
They sleep in castles, so, so safe and deep
But I just can't keep the wolf from my street
No, she runs her tongue
Across her teeth
Could someone
Blow this man down?
Could someone bring me back 'round
To the shallows?
Oh, it's all so easy now
So I bought a tie
And I bought a suit
Oh, they saw right through it
Oh, they saw right through it
And now it feels like fun
And now it feels like fun
Now it feels like fun
You know it feels like fun
And now it feels like fun
Now it feels like fun
Now it feels like fun
You know it feels like
