slow cheetah

waking up dead inside of my head

will never never do there is no med

no medicine to take

i've had a chance to be insane

asylum from the falling rain

i've had a chance to break

it's so bad it's got to be good

mysterious girl misunderstood

dressed like a wedding cake

any other day and i might play

a funeral march for bonnie brae

why try and run away

slow cheetah come

before my forest

looks like it's on today

slow cheetah come

it's so euphoric

no matter what they say

i know a girl

she worked in a store

she knew not what

her life was for

she barely knew her name

they tried to tell her

she would never be

as happy as the girl

in the magazine

she bought it with her pay

everyone has

so much to say

they talk talk talk

their lives away

don't even hesitate

walking on down

to the burial ground

it's a very old dance

with a merry old sound

looks like it's on today
