Night Birds - Maimed for the Masses lyrics

I swore that I'd make good on
The dreams of my forgotten youth
Although no one believed me if you
Want to know the truth
I would dive off of the
Cages just like the Superfly
I thought it was my destiny but
In time it was a lie
Yes I would get the girls and
I would beat the rest
And I would finally get that big
Red heart tattooed upon my chest
Ten pounds of gold around my waist
That says that I'm the best
But we all know that it was not to be

Now I'm a monster -
My body's been destroyed
Yet here I stand - still gainfully employed
Ready to maim myself for the masses to enjoy
It's all in a hard day's work
For Mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy
For Mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy
Leon broke my nose and severed off my ear
So when the nurse asked me if it
Was real I couldn't even hear
The barbs from crowds more painful than
Those that hang on wires
I have this sacred calling nothing
Else could drive me higher
Well the tacks go in and the blood comes out
And I'll never get the girls with
My two front teeth knocked out
A needle in my spine means
I can fight another bout
And take a guess when that next bout will be

Now I'm a monster -
My body's been destroyed
Yet here I stand - still gainfully employed
Ready to maim myself for the masses to enjoy
It's all in a hard day's work
For Mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy
For Mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy

Sold out every night lon Chaney in tights

Now I'm a monster -
My body's been destroyed
Yet here I stand - still gainfully employed
Ready to maim myself for the masses to enjoy
It's all in a hard day's work
For Mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy
For Mrs foley's baby boy
For Mrs foley's baby boy
For Mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy mrs foley's baby boy
Mrs foley's baby boy
