Disposable

Well you can use me up and throw me out
'Cause I won't keep and there's no doubt
The momentary images
You can get from other cartridges
The empty shell around my core
Is all you need and nothing more
'Cause I'm not the kind you need to keep
My boyish charms are just skin-deep
You can get me in a pack of two if you even care
And don't wait up 'cause I was there
For nothing more than to give to you
The lasting thought, the only truth

That I am just a passer-through
So throw me out as the others do
I'm useful, but I'm disposable
Oh whoa-oh, whoa oh
I'm disposable
Oh whoa-oh, whoa oh

You see, I am just a vessel for
The real thing, the better score
The piece that you'll take home with you
And tell your friends about the fool
Who talks about the love he has
For falling hard and holding hands
But that's okay, it's like I said
I've played my cards, I've made my bed
So pick me up, I'm on the shelf
I'm pretty cheap, I tell myself
It'll be okay, I have my health
I've kicked the fags and I'm gaining wealth

You'll be done with me before you know
And I'll be gone, my lace is tied
My flash is on, I'm ready for that lonely knock
I'll hold them close, I'll be their rock
But when they go they won't forget
To take away the special bits
To roll 'em up, and take 'em down
To your local man, yeah he's around
He'll develop me in just one hour
And that will be the last you ever see of me
So throw me on the finish team
'Cause I'm not the kind you need to keep

See, I am just a passer-through
So throw me out as the others do
I'm useful, but I'm disposable
Oh whoa-oh, whoa oh
I'm disposable
Oh whoa-oh, whoa oh

So don't stop doing what you're doing
'Cause you can get a new one
And I'm getting pretty fluent
At being temporary
I'm sure I'm one of many
And I'm just as shit as any other brand

And disposable
Oh whoa-oh, whoa oh
I'm disposable
Oh whoa-oh, whoa oh
I'm disposable
Oh whoa-oh, oh whoa oh
Whoa oh, woo ooh
