The Dead Line

Welcome to the Riot, It's Saturday Night
I'm Workin' On Red Eyes But I'm Feeling Alright
Ain't It Like a Living End, and Burning Like a Flame
I Take It to the Limit Before the Glory Fades
You Say Our Music's Brainless-boring Punk Rock
A Psychedelic Nightmare, But When They Gonna Stop
Andrew's On Daniel's, Toody's On Bliss
It's All I Ever Wanted, the Best It Ever Gets
My Head's a Little Scattered 'cause I'm Working On the Dead Line

There's a Panic Going Backstage, Something Just Broke
Edwin's Got a Flashlight, Looking Through the Smoke
Monitors Squeeling and I Just Broke a String
And Andrew's Got Beer Sprayed All Over Everything
Someone Tripped the Power, the Lights Are Going Dim
People Hanging Outside Trying to Get In
Toody's Yelling Something, I Must Be Out of Tune
That's the Least of My Problems, Can't Hear Nothing in This Room
My Head's a Little Scattered 'cause I'm Working On the Dead Line

Yeah, My Life's a Broken Wire But I'm Getting My Kicks
Another Night of Chaos With Edwin On the Mix
Time to Load Equipment, Where the Hell Did Andrew Go ?
Weeden's Got the T-shirts, and Records On the Floor
Hans and Ruud Are Talking, Man, I Need a Cigarette
They Say We're Playing Vera, If We Don't Get in a Wreck
Toody Holds the Lighter, When Someone Has to Ask
"so Why's the Candle Burning ?" "cause Nothing Ever Lasts"
My Head's a Little Scattered 'cause I'm Working On the Dead Line
