01. rabbit in your headlights

I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Scared of the spotlight
You don't come to visit
I'm stuck in this bed
Thin rubber gloves
She laughs when she's crying
She cries when she's laughing
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanites
Washed down the toilet
Money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away

"If you're frightened of dying and then you hold on
You'll see devils tearing your life away
But, if you've made your peace
Then the devils are really angels freeing you from the earth"

Rotworms on the underground
Caught between stations
Butterfingers
I'm losing my patience
I'm a rabbit in your headlights
Christian suburbanites
You got money to burn
Fat bloody fingers are sucking your soul away

Feeling pulled apart by horses
Fobbed off with lame {"shite" or "shoddy"} excuses.

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack and crevice
out here in Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And white boys get washed down the drain like the snow and the rain
It took me years of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I wanna be where the lights are shinin' on me

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone

Well, I really don't mind the rain
And a smile can hide all the pain
But you're walkin these streets so long out here in broadway
And i dream of the things I'll do
With a subway token and a dollar tucked into my shoe
It took me years compromisin'
Oh, to get to my horizon
But I wanna be where the lights are shinin' on me

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone

Like a rhinestone cowboy
Offers comin' over the phone

Soul destroyed with clever toys for little boys
It's inevitable, inevitable, it's a soul destroyed
You're free until you drop
You're free until you've had enough
But you don't understand
You've no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord, no ripcord

Aeroplane
Do I mean what I mean?
It's inevitable, inevitable, oh aeroplane
A thousand miles an hour
And politics in power
That you don't understand
You've no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord, no ripcord

The answer to your prayers
We'll drop you anywhere
With no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord, no ripcord
