«In time you’ll grow», I fucking hope
Step behind the screens, 2D boy in a magazine
I’m outside looking in, at all the time we’re putting in
Hear the gambling machines, singing in thirds
Think I know what it means
And oh no, I won’t say the right things
Just to open doors
How cheerfully they seem to grin
How neatly spread their claws
«Don’t waste your time in the studio»
I’ve been told to beg, steal, and borrow
I’m sold it’s not the way to go
Nobody listens to the radio
Everybody gets a piece
Everybody gets a piece
Everybody gets a piece
Everybody gets a piece
Better metamorphosise all chain gang butterflies
Did you honestly say it might have been, might have been me?
But all this while did you think of me?
You know all this while we were, pure potential energy, dreaming
«Don’t waste your time in the studio»
I’ve been told to beg, steal, and borrow
I’m sold it’s not the way to go
Nobody listens to the radio
Nobody listens to the radio
Don’t ask, you’ll never get
You never asked so you never got nothing
Did you get all you wanted from me?
You don’t ask so you’ll never receive
Don’t ask, you’ll never get
You never asked so you never got nothing
Did you get all you wanted from me?
Can’t lose when you’re playing for free
Don’t ask, you’ll never get
You never asked so you never got nothing
Don’t ask, you’ll never get
(Did you get all you wanted from me?)
Don’t ask, you’ll never get
You never asked so you never got nothing
Don’t ask, you’ll never get
Everybody gets a piece
Everybody gets a piece
«Don’t waste your time in the studio»
I’ve been told to beg, steal, and borrow
I’m sold it’s not the way to go
Nobody listens to the radio
Nobody listens to the
