Dance of Frankenstein

I've been writing since the day you made me
They say I'm gonna be on television, baby
Black-lined cartoon at the arcade
Spotlight the stitches that you made

They said I'm gonna make my own money now
I hear I'm gonna be a horror flick cash cow
I don't know how much I can take
For heaven's sake, I'm always awake
I'm always awake

So put on My Bloody Valentine
I'm paying by the week near the five-and-dime
I want to be born for a second time
Can we do the dance of Frankenstein?

When you called last week, you were cruel and odd
I'm about to hire someone new to play God
I've been reading Beowulf and Sartre too
You know what, man, they were all for you
They were all for you

So put on My Bloody Valentine
I'm paying by the week near the five-and-dime
I want to be born for a second time
Can we do the dance of Frankenstein?

I'm a fake, I'm a haunted laugh
If you're the only one who doesn't want my autograph
They say it's you I've been after
Just want to kill the master
Want to kill the master

So put on My Bloody Valentine
I'm paying by the week near the five-and-dime
I want to be born for a second time
Can we do the dance of Frankenstein?
