lyrics

Excuse me kind stranger, lead me astray-
Down to the square, so I can sell you my soul.
See, I'm so tired of leading the virtuous life,
It's all heat and no fire and I'm turning so cold.

So, draw up your contracts and I'll come prepared to die by the nib of your fountain pen.

Roll it in glitter, bathe me in style;
Send up the script then tear me up like barbed wire.
Yeah I'm on my way, I'm your shooting star-
But it won't be too long until I finally expire.

Then they'd lay out my frame and you'd bring in the hordes and charge $25 a piece on the door.

Excuse me kind stranger, take all of my art-
and then pass it around to some folks with esteem.
And when it is clear I'm no longer worthwhile,
You can say that you tried and I'll have my release.

And if I had a dollar for each discontent, I'm sure you'd still take your 20 percent.
