Glued up back to back,

Rolled up in one.

Were like a fork shoved on a spoon.
They were part sun, part earth
Part daughter, part son."

You're burning out and blowing round.
And if you've got no other choice

Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town.

The fates are vicious and they're cruel.
You learn too late you've used two wishes
Like a fool. "

And no matter how hard I've tried
I end up black and blue

I rose from off of the doctor's slab
I lost a piece of my heart
Now everyone gets to take a stab
They cut me up into parts

He took the good stuff and ran."

Spinning to your rock and roll

Lift up your hands"
