Song Lyrics

A one, a two, a one, two, three

Today I sat and smoked myself to cancer
Thinking about the dancer at the bar
Well, how was I to know that a crush could just implode
?Til it became a grudge eclipsing every star

And yes, I know my addictions run the gamut
The drugs, the smokes, the booze, the twenty-four
But you can't make the turkey colder or skew me less bipolar
Let me list the things about you I abhor

Horrible, you're so easy, talk sleazy
You led me off the plank and left me queasy
And that is why you can't rock my world

You swore that you were taken when I met you
But yes, you did undress me from afar
A gentle concubine, you skip amongst the mines
Just a product of the endless, empty grind

You lack the curves that prove a proper lady
A slender slave with sluttish, sleepy eyes
Though once I was emoting and Bono lyric quoting
I have found another, be my guest and die

Starry eyes, she's warm glancing, entrancing
And now I'm through with all your sick sad ranting
And that is why you can't rock my world

I've lost you and now I glide through the silky sky
It?s so blue and you're just old news that is why
So screwed, cadaver gone blue, this has died
Your machine is [Incomprehensible])
Now I see right through your lies

With ripe wonder, I plunder the village
Now that I know I've become her
And that is why you can't rock my
That is why, that is why you'll never ever
In a goddamn millennium be my girl

I watch frozen stars on the way home
I watch frozen stars on the way back home
I watch frozen stars on the way home
I watch frozen stars burned out on the way back home
