Thea Gilmore - The Resurrection Men lyrics
[Thea Gilmore - The Resurrection Men lyrics]
They're coming with their stories and
They're coming with their wine
They got a copy of a Chopin
Tune and an old no-smoking sign
They're mapping every person's life
Aligning every chart
They've got a kitchen knife and a
Power cable poised against each heart
They say we are your morphine vision
We are your TV screen
We are your chat show host
We are your magazine
We've got trace elements in each fashion
Every trend so let’s end this story kids
See if you do it all again
The resurrection men
They're watching all those people in
The corporate ocean’s tide
The choreography of commerce
The backhanders and the lies
They're erasing all the figures
All the dollars, all the dreams
They say you can always tell a suicide
By the length of the scream
And we are your morphine vision
We are your other half
We are your healthy living
We are your epitaph
We've got your second chances
Dressed in an accident
You want the next big bang
Then you can just send the resurrection men
The resurrection men the resurrection men
They're coming with their bank books
They're collecting every fare
From burning nights in Nagasaki
Frozen days in Val-d'Isere
And now the walls crumble round
Downing Street and Capitol Hill
Its only murder if you twist the
Knife with intent to kill
And they're coming with their butane
They're coming with their signs
From the black and white division
The bloody wars and their front lines
They fan the flames of degradation
To a mariachi band
'Cause the crimes always committed
Using someone else's hand
And we are your morphine vision
We are your sleepless nights
We are your catechism
We are your final rites
We've got your weakness pegged
Each break and every bend
You throw a tragedy we'll always attend
The resurrection men the resurrection men
The resurrection men the resurrection men
They're coming with their wine
They got a copy of a Chopin
Tune and an old no-smoking sign
They're mapping every person's life
Aligning every chart
They've got a kitchen knife and a
Power cable poised against each heart
They say we are your morphine vision
We are your TV screen
We are your chat show host
We are your magazine
We've got trace elements in each fashion
Every trend so let’s end this story kids
See if you do it all again
The resurrection men
They're watching all those people in
The corporate ocean’s tide
The choreography of commerce
The backhanders and the lies
They're erasing all the figures
All the dollars, all the dreams
They say you can always tell a suicide
By the length of the scream
And we are your morphine vision
We are your other half
We are your healthy living
We are your epitaph
We've got your second chances
Dressed in an accident
You want the next big bang
Then you can just send the resurrection men
The resurrection men the resurrection men
They're coming with their bank books
They're collecting every fare
From burning nights in Nagasaki
Frozen days in Val-d'Isere
And now the walls crumble round

The resurrection men the resurrection men
The resurrection men the resurrection men
