Aching for something to slow down This desperate running out of time Where time's a wreck Falling through emotions With too much catching up to do Please believe Me bitterness is not my only virtue One of two But you knew that, didn't you There are moments of good endings But far too few Let's take our bicycles and ride I'm sticking with you I've read between the lines Far too long, it's not paying off The substance is gone Your luck came to an abrupt end Well, so did mine at the age of nine Please forgive me Bitterness is not my only virtue One of two But you knew that, didn't you There are moments of good endings But far too few Let's take our bicycles and ride Like good friends do There are moments of good endings But far too few Let's take our bicycles and ride It's up to you Something was wrong at an early age So little a creature But consumed by uncontrollable rage Born with teeth And a thorn in everybody's side Line 'em up and roll 'em in Everybody with a glass chin No one's gonna run me out But everybody ran me out As a sucker for the d.i.y. concept I went to your show last night Your gang was trashing the stage And you had the starglimpse in your eye But i'm sad to say: your ways Will never make your records sell They'll line you up and roll you in Everybody with a glass chin everything will run you out And i'm a living proof of that Born with teeth And a thorn in everybody's side Line 'em up and roll 'em in Everybody with a glass chin No one's gonna run me out But everybody ran me out
