When You're a Jet, You're a Jet All the Way

from Sunshine by The Lives of Famous Men

/

lyrics

Everywhere I’m seeing fence posts,
off-white new enamel to
keep a wayward tongue from flickering
on its side and out of turn.
And every word’s a fence post, that's right.
We’re enamored of the gospel
that is pop commodity.
I guess I’m just filibustering.

So keep it close, keep it close, oh, oh.

After all, you’ve got the youth up all night,
reading into the details of your
constant narrative, and
singing back, sweet and surrogate.
And all the verve’s a fence post, that’s right.
We’re enamored of the gospel
that is autobiography.
Well you haven’t lost your luster yet.

Now that you’re a jet,
you’ve got all your steps to dance,
to dance to death.
