Everybody's watching, none of them I've ever met
Starring in the headlines no good news is death
Threats fly through the
airmail, e-mail and express
Fax instructions for the bomb
A bone breaking game of chess
Starved and banged what a way to
go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go
Pushed too far by numbers
Payments way past due
Additional tack
on late charge
Who'll be screwing who
Screwed my head so tightly
Feels like it's gonna snap at the neck
If you're gonna
cheat with your own cards
At least you could shuffle the deck
Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and
hanged
What a way to go
Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to
go
Sweat it out in walls that both my shoulders touch
If I hadn't lost everything else
My mind wouldn't matter so
much
Backed up on a pay way, free way, blue lights closing fast
I was promised before my eyes
I'd see my life flashing
past
Starved and banged what a way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go
Starved and banged what a
way to go
Slit wristed, run over and hanged
What a way to go
