Kettle of Fish

lyrics

Play you cards boy, it's not a childs toy.
This is life, go pick a wife.
We'll leave without you, frozen stiff.
Step into the light and pick a fight.

A broken droid searching for a way to mend
looking out for a dead-end waiting round the bend.
But little girl, I want to see your face again
but I'm cursed and slowly melting away.

Let the pin roll down your throat
bite the barrel and tell a joke.
Taste the freedom.
Take the risk.
We're all birds in a cage,
a kettle of fish.

A broken droid searching for a way to mend
looking out for a dead-end waiting round the bend.
But little girl, I want to see your face again
but I'm cursed and slowly melting away.

A picture in my mind is all I have now.
I could just fall down and stay down
become a carpet for the vermin
another meal for the vultures
a placebo for the dying
a retribution for the lost.
I'll become a scapegoat for the cowards
another meal for the birds.
