You're a sick organism And you're living on the edge of town You're gulping for breath Hoping that you'll be found You're a dying breed And I hope that you don't drown You're a sick organism And you're living on the edge of town You've got a beautiful surface I wonder what it really hides You sent an invitation But I think I'm gonna stay outside The sun is shining and I hope that you don't get fried You're a sick organism And you're living on the edge of town You're a sick organism All your natural functions stalled Like a fish out of water, you wait to be recalled I hope the tide comes in or you won't get back at all You're a sick organism All your natural functions stalled You fade in the daylight The colour drained from your wings You had a beautiful song That you no longer can be bothered to sing Best offer yourself as food for some living thing You're a sick organism And you're living on the edge of town You've got a beautiful surface Ailing on the chaos within If it's all skin deep Then I'm glad you had perfect skin If the best survive Then it looks like you won't win You're a sick organism And you're living on the edge of town You're gulping for breath Hoping that you'll be found You're a dying breed And I hope that you don't drown You're a sick organism And you're living off the edge of town You're a sick organism You're a sick organism You're a sick organism You're a sick organism
