"Where Flowers Fade" Lyrics

I'm pushed and pulled and shunted
Man handled and man hunted by those faceless names
You've got nine lives, I've got eight
I just can't wait to lock the door and throw the keys away

I'll call as soon as it's all over, let's wait until the world is sober

The world is wide, Manhattan chase, misguided missiles spin in space
Fell like a sundial in the shade where flowers fade

I feel like the poor relation
Passing through and empty station on an empty track
I'm half poverty, half oysters
No morals, tarnished laurels going nowhere fast

You don't get smoke without a fire, next time I'll vote for Billy Liar

The world is wide, Manhattan chase, misguided missiles spin in space
Feel like a sundial in the shade where flowers fade

The world is wide, Manhattan chase, misguided missiles spin in space
Feel like a sundial in the shade where flowers fade

I hate liars, I hate cheats, waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love, goodbye peace, I hate war, it ruins conversation
I hate liars, I hate cheats, waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love, goodbye peace, I hate war, it ruins conversation

I hate liars, I hate cheats, goodbye love

I hate liars, I hate cheats, waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love, goodbye peace, I hate war, it ruins conversation
I hate liars, I hate cheats, waving flags and saving nations
Goodbye love, goodbye peace, I hate war, it ruins conversation
