A#
Shine the headlight, straight into my eye
                            D#
Like the roadkill, I'm paralyzed
                G#     A#
You see through my disguise

At the drive-in, double feature
Pull the lever, break the fever
And say your last goodbye

Chorus:
      Gm             F           A#
Since I was born I started to decay
    Gm           F             A#
Now nothing ever-ever goes my way

One fluid gesture, like stepping back in time
Trapped in amber, petrified
And still not satisfied

Airs and social graces, elocution so divine
I'll stick to my needle,
and my favorite waste of time
Both spineless and sublime

Chorus
