lyrics

You’re learning to think with the
right side of your head,
but you haven’t quite gotten the
hang of it yet.
There’s still the taste of blood in your mouth
that says you’re going to be famous.
Let’s get you fitted for a smile and
show you how to shake hands.

We’ll show you around
so you don’t have to find out
for yourself.

You’re digging your own burial plot
with a ballpoint pen
and you don’t even know it.
You’re playing with a gun called celebrity.
Be careful when you use it.

I’d keep my eyes open if I were you.
