Wolf Party
Those wolf mechanics!
Those wolf mechanics!
Today you beat the fortune teller
To death with your bare hands
Was it his smirk laugh
Or the ostrich feather taped to his purple hat?
He read the lines on your palm
Chanting a creole song
"It is soon you will die
And angels don't take bribes"
Don't linger (Don't linger, don't linger)
On the skylight (Don't linger, don't linger)
You smashed into his skull (Don't linger, don't linger)
Just run back to the alley
Tell jokes to the bricks and rats
'Cause one man's murder scene
Is another champagne party
One man's splintered spine
Is a soldier's war decoration
Wolf mechanics!
Flare up again
As you make your way back to the financial district
The subway's a numb field
And every dazed boy and girl
Makes you lick your lips
And the girl with the accordion
Chewing grass like a lamb
She hands you the juicy eye
And then she laughs at your pathetic tie
Don't linger (Don't linger, don't linger)
On the grin (Don't linger, don't linger)
You gouged in her throat (Don't linger, don't linger)
Just take the subway home
But the wife and kids
Twinkle like stuffed dogs
And you're like
The stormy ocean now
Collecting death
Like driftwood
Those wolf mechanics banging!
Those wolf mechanics crashing!
Those wolf mechanics banging!
Those wolf mechanics crashing!
'Cause one man's suicide
Is a credit company's bride
One man's poisoned mind
Is a pharmaceutical gold mine
You bring your kill
From the savannah
And bake it in the sun but
The heat wraps it's flesh
You see the face of God
In the tarry mess and
Those wolf mechanics banging!
Those wolf mechanics crashing!
Those wolf mechanics banging!
Those wolf mechanics crashing!
Those wolf mechanics!
Today you beat the fortune teller
To death with your bare hands
Was it his smirk laugh
Or the ostrich feather taped to his purple hat?
He read the lines on your palm
Chanting a creole song
"It is soon you will die
And angels don't take bribes"
Don't linger (Don't linger, don't linger)
On the skylight (Don't linger, don't linger)
You smashed into his skull (Don't linger, don't linger)
Just run back to the alley
Tell jokes to the bricks and rats
'Cause one man's murder scene
Is another champagne party
One man's splintered spine
Is a soldier's war decoration
Wolf mechanics!

Those wolf mechanics banging!
Those wolf mechanics crashing!
Those wolf mechanics banging!
Those wolf mechanics crashing!
