Break Even

For any sort of pain, there's a market and a remedy
Stocks bonds up and down the chain of custody
Keeper of the Flagstaff, a sniper at the ready
Prone to snap hands clapping cracking codes and ribs
Fire up and down the rapids shoot the medicine
He'll quit and join the race, the rank and file for normality

If you can make it there, you'll make it anywhere
Just what you'd be making exactly is anyone's guess

Soon it's the pat on the back
The ravings, the panic attacks
For it's the common mistake
The fun and the fin in the lake
Soon it's the cast of a die
The shrewdly slanted device

Thank the groom for a room so dank
Phantom-powered light bulbs flicker in a fish tank
Who's that waiting on the other side of the receiving end?
Cold-blooded doner with ghastly manners
I was leader of the ageing pack when I found her
Sketch out etching replicate shipped out built-in operator

Soon it's the cast of a die
The shrewdly slanted device
For it's the bid in the auction
Break even or break into heaven

A figurehead of state, a true visionary
Joins the rank and file for dependency
Investigating what lays back yonder
What might come out of it, I dare not wonder

Soon it's the pat on the back
The ravings, the panic attacks
For it's the common mistake
The fun and the fin in the lake
Soon it's the cast of a die
The shrewdly slanted device
For it's the bid in the auction
Break even or break into heaven

Break even or break into heaven
Break even or break into heaven
