Rock & Roll Suicide Lyrics

Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
The wall to wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Oh, you're a rock & roll suicide

You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clock waits so patiently on your song
You walk past the cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long
Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock & roll suicide

Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow, don't let the milk float ride your mind
You're so natural religiously unkind

Oh no love, you're not alone
You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I could only
Make you care

Oh no love, you're not alone
No matter what or who you've been, no matter when or where you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share, I'll help you with the pain, you're not alone

Just turn on with me and you're not alone
Let's turn on with me, not alone
(Wonderful)
Give me your hands cause you're wonderful
(Wonderful)
Give me your hands cause you're wonderful
(Wonderful)
Oh, give me your hands
