bug zapper lyrics
[verse 1]
i’m going to bed
live others instead
imagine i was dead
paint the chaos red

[verse 2]
sometimes its just there
i know all effects
wish i was like the rest
[?]

[chorus 1]
when you close your eyes and don’t feel a sting under your skin does that mean you have had a decent night?
when they tried to tune you all the strings inside you snapped and now all that’s left are tear ducts in your eyes?

[verse 3]
useless images
stars insidе your eyes
uselеss dead romance
to keep me up at night

[chorus 2]
when you spend all your time hiding in public bathrooms does that mean that you have had a decent life?
because you can’t keep eye contact or hold a conversation like a freak who only lives at night
you sit in a remote corner collecting dust and growing old and nodding til you’re all worn out
you’ve only got a few years of your life left and more than half will be spent working from nine to five
so pull yourself together you’re a man and not a feather, with your face stone cold you’ll stay alive
[outro]
i’m not gonna die, but if i roll the dice just right
i’ll be a b-tterfly and live my only life in one night
i’m not gonna die, i wish i could for just a second
be a b-tterfly or all the mice out on city streets

[excerpt from “the five people you meet in heaven”]
soon, people were looking at me strangely
my skin was turning the color of ash
i was ashamed and agitated
i swallowed even more silver nitrate until my skin went from grey to blue
a side effect of the poison

i found a saloon, a dark place where i could hide beneath a hat and coat
one night, a group of carnival men were in the back
they smoked cigars
they laughed
one of them, a rather small fellow with a wooden leg, kept looking at me
finally, he approached me
by the end of the night, i had agreed to join their carnival
and my life as a commodity had begun

the show was simple
i would sit on the stage, half undressed, as people walked past and the barker told them how pathetic i was
for this, i was able to put a few coins in my pocket
the manager once called me the ‘best freak’ in his stable
and, sad as it sounds, i took pride in that
