I wrote you a letter but I set it on fire
I thought it'd be better to hide my desire
I painted a picture and I covered it black
To give you a lecture on how to get sacked - to give you a lecture
Your blues gets me deeper down (your blues)
I choose to kill the tragic clown and steal the nailed king's thorny crown (your blues)
And so I drop these lines to see I'm still fine and love the human kind
I read a whole book with my eyes all shut
And felt that the leaves were mainly uncut
I built up a landscape but I left out the trees
I planted some flowers but I killed all the bees - I got the power
Your blues gets me deeper down (your blues)
Amused to death I hit the ground and searched my life at Lost & Found (your blues)
And so I hide and seek the fragile leak inside the crippled freak
Your blues gets me deeper down (your blues)
No news in this beaten town where word to mouth talks without sound (your blues)
And so I leave my place to go on a chase and save the human race
And save the human race
