Lyrics

Night sunshine
The ghetto bird chimes 4am
Welcome to the West
A mosquito to kiss your hands and feet
Welcome to this dirty business
I was surprised
When you called me a lady
'Cause I’m still not so sure that that’s what I wanna be
'Cause I remember the 80s
And I remember its puffy sleeves
You say I’m lucky to be here
Then maybe you can take this over
And I’ll gladly wear the pants into the next century
Past the scanners with ease
Past armies of them
Who once played in a band
And wasted it complaining like a trust fund kid
Paying you to play here while they hate you because of it
You say I’m «lucky to be here»
But I’ve been driving for 21 days
What’s that nasty sound?
The E-brake drags the ground
God, if you only knew
What my candied fist could do
The curtain’s closing in from all directions
Just answer my question
Perhaps, it’s best if I continue
Starring me as you, me as you
Starring me as you, me as you
And there you are
At the edge of the world
Dangling with my heart a’pounding
Above a gulf of hamstrung promises
You sang like «Auld Lang Syne»
You wanted it so badly that you believed them at the time
Every fashion’s flame
Every jet-plane lie
Every second helping of that off-ramp fame we die a little
You’re right, I’m from Nowhere
You’re right, I’m from Nowhere
You’re right, I’m from Nowhere
You’re right
