Celebrity Death Lyrics
Your baby and wife took a walk on the beach on a Saturday
By Monday, pictures dressed in bold font The only thing that inspired you was the everyday And that's the only thing that they didn't want The green light's your way; who does it illuminate? How many men reside in your face? And which one got everything you wanted? When all the world's a stage Does everything seem worthless and fake? 'Cause I've seen you live so many lives. Oh, adopted a guise that put you under these lights, what a cruel design That I saw you more than most of my friends Now tears roll down cheeks from eyes of suspended disbelief To watch a special news bulletin Saying, "I've seen you live so many lives. Oh what's one more? Why won't you rise from the grave like you done before?" 'Cause they only wanted to see if your eyes shine like in the films of you 'Cause they only want to believe that they knew you well themselves Oh but of course they don't look like that That took seven hours of make-up and a special lens cap Oh... Confidants' confidence dies, tongues cluck and tears dry How are you surprised? That nameless sadness lives for all time 'Cause drinks don't stay cold and smoke leaves ash like a soul and clouds all the voices of safety I thought for a moment, yeah, maybe I was alone Just to feel an ounce of regret But that didn't occur once to the lunch ladies They had a cup of tea and a cigarette They didn't waste any precious time saying kind things 'Cause the whole appeal is to rely on the face of things 'Cause they only wanted to see if your eyes shine like in the films of you 'Cause they only want to believe that they knew you well themselves Oh but of course they don't look like that That took seven hours of make-up and a special lens cap On some days it's hard to remember that Even for you I hope you rest well Oh... Yeah, some days it's hard to remember that But I hope you rest well
