Face Lift 318

Face Lift 318

318
It's a house in a street with a promise like you've
Never seen
318
It's a place in the sun with the people who run
Through the dream
318
It's escape from the cage when the pickings start to
Get too lean
Really clean
It's a new lease of life and the money makes the
Knife real keen

They say you can forget about the future
Everything will be fine
Well, more or less
And you will never have to fear tomorrow
If you just sign away your consciousness

318
Now the mirror is red and the pool is slowly turning
Green
Soothing cream
I know some of my parts are the start of someone
Else's scheme

They say that you lose all your inhibitions
Everything will be cool
If you can come
And you will always find the right position
If you just read the writing back to front
And you will never have to beg or borrow
If you just hide away your restlessness

You're sick and tired of the way time is going
And nothing comes out right although you try
Need to reverse the way your body's growing
You've got to stop the way life passes by

You've got a mortgage on your desperation
And love just slips away
Leaves you the bills
You know you're coming to that final station
Beyond the trees you see the hills
