The Click

I had romances
And I went all the way
I took the chances
And I failed anyway
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Looking forward is the only way to go

I drank the poison
I joined the wicked dance
I tried avoiding any aggravating circumstance
Eventually I just did not comply
Regardless of how many years went by

I had to bail out
When I saw what I had become
They had it in for me
And I clearly was outgunned

I helped them hunting
I helped to stalk for prey
I learned their grunting
But still I dreamed myself away
Too late, too late, too late
The click I heard behind me was the closing of the gate

I prowled the compound with all the other residents
Until I had found a hole in the electric fence
So long, so long, so long
The guards they were distracted by a drinking song

I had to bail out
When I saw what I had become
They had it in for me
And I clearly was outgunned
I had to bail out
When I saw what I had become
They had it in for me
And I clearly was outgunned
I had to bail out
When I saw what I had become
They had it in for me
And I clearly was outgunned
I had to bail out
When I saw what I had become
They had it in for me
And I clearly was outgunned
