Greaser Boy

There's a girl in my head
Who dreams that I am dead
Everywhere I turn
She's there to watch me burn
She's yearning for the day
When I will finally be destroyed
Baby, I will be your greaser boy

We sold our little house
And moved into a mouse
Set off across the sea
But it wasn't meant to be
She was a whiny little witch
And I'm an habitual bitch
But baby
I will be your greaser boy

Cruisin' in my car
Down Las Vegas Boulevard
You held my hand
And I held all the cards
We're crazy
Yeah we're fools
Our hearts are made of stolen jewels
That can never be returned
See how easily they burn!
And wouldn't it be nice
To be made of ice
And have no regrets?
So let's please don't fight
It will be alright
In the end
Hit send

Like a broken bird
Baby I been cured
My crown of snakes is caked with dust
And in a crass display of trust
You walk right out of the computer screen
You're the cutest little Judas
I've ever seen
Baby I will be your greaser boy

We had it all
My golden go-go doll
But my heart went astray
And I threw it all away
Into the bottom of a well
And I would gladly go to hell
Why should I be scared?
I'm already halfway there!
Jesus, please have mercy
Don't reimburse me
For my sins
Won't you take the wheel?
I'm not a whore
I just feel
A little sick

My heart is soaring
Like a brick
