Luke McGowan - Darts Lyrics

Wake up early in the morning
To wash your stupid face
The grin staring in the mirror
Is not the one you'd like to place
In the picture with your boyfriend
That sits next to the vase
Holding flowers from the funeral
Its their final resting place

Brush the dandruff from your shoulder
Like a ceaseless winter mix
Tell your darling that you love him
Know it's the best you'll ever get
As your cynicism subsided
You look fondly on your wit
Like the graffiti on the urinal
You swim upstream through the piss

Highway to the back of your mind
A muse sits on a stool in the light
I wait for a day when it all comes crushing down
Brush strokes will cover your tomb
Like daddy's nails as they scratch at her womb
To rid the family of the preachers son
Another war is won

Build a body for your doctor
One that would make her proud
So when she sees you standing naked
She'll keep her feelings to herself
Don't remind her of the ringworm
Don't remind her of the darts
When she sees you standing naked
She'll recognize a work of art
