"Roger's Audition" lyrics

"Roger's Audition"

Keep your hands out
Or have your eye blown wide
I ain't playing now

Test my patience
Push me too far
And see what's troubling me

I know that
Life can be so cruel
I know
It's a sick joke
Where the bad guys win
In the end

In the ambulance
Screaming down the street
Is the future me

Holding my audience
For the encore
Leave them wanting more

I know that
I can be so cruel
I know
It's a sick joke
Where you never win
Start over again

"Too much blood on the sidewalk"
The boom in frame
