[Verse 1]
Six or seven more
I know the score, it's not worth dying for
Holding to my chest what is left
And walking out that door
Six or seven more
There's no end, play that set again
Time stretches and bends
I've heard these songs played by different men
Six or seven more
I know the score, it's not worth dying for
Holding to my chest what is left
And walking out that door
Six or seven more
There's no cure for a life bereft
Rollin' 'round my hеad
Yellin', "Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop the press" (Okay)
[Bridge]
I'll takе, take, take, take, take what I can get (Uh-huh)

R-r-r-r-rollin' 'round my head
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop the press
[Instrumental Break]

Time stretches and bends
I've heard these songs played by different men
Six or seven more
You can't ignore what you're here looking for
Keeping to be kept
Holding to be held, and nothing more
[Verse 3]
Six or seven more
I know the score, it's not worth dying for
Holding to my chest what is left
And walking out that door
Six or seven more
There's no cure for a life bereft
Rollin' 'round my head
Yellin', "Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop the press"
