Teri Toye Cherry Bomb

I-my headphones were cutting in-in-in

The most important part of beaty comes from within
The inner beaty, being interested in life
Caring for others and being involved in the issues of your community
The more you're interested in the world around you
The more interesting you become

He walks down the street his head in his hands
Knows all that occurs to best laid plans
He got a mission he won't see through
He'll drink himself to death if he can't look like you

Teri Toye gleams like a bottle of wine
She walks with her lanky velveteen shine
She's dressed like a rifle loaded with grace
What I would give just to see her face

The light comes out from under the door
And I know what its for
The light that shines from the TV screen
And I know what it means

In a show house basement all coated in grime
All posture appears metaphysically rhymed
Just wanna say things beautiful and true
But no one here really gives a shit bout you

The light that blinds puts me on the floor
And I know what I'm lookin for
I saw her face in the magazine
And I made believe it was me

Left halfway thru the hardcore show
Just to get me some space
Took a look in the mirror
Couldn't see my own face
Went down to the shoppin mall
Just to buy me some threads
Got killed in a knife fight
By some bored skinheads

Sock it to me

Miss my German car n laissez-faire attitude
Miss any feeling of shame or graditude
Miss the streets that I walked that burned into mist
I'm so done with ironic nihilists
