The stars that shine and the stars that shrink

In the face of stagnation the water runs

Before your eyes...

Swallowing diamonds

A cutting throat

Your teeth when you grin

Reflecting beams on tombstones

A jamboree of surprises

Playing Russian roulette

Or the Lucky Dip

A clenched fist to your heart

Coal dust on your lungs

A silver tongue for the chosen one

Heavy magnum in your side or a bloody thorn

Skating bullets on angel dust

In a dead sea of fluid mercury

Baby piano cries

Under your heavy index & thumb

Pull some strings -- let them sing

The stars that shine and the stars that shrink

In the face of stagnation the water runs

Before your eyes...

Dazzle -- It's a glittering prize

Before your eyes...

It's a glittering prize...
