"Alex Bell" lyrics

"Alex Bell"

Like raking the coastline
Diving for pearls
I'll have a go
Where I like the streetlights
That outline the world

Lake and trees
Hands and knees
Star light casino

And after the joyride
Where no truth was found
There's a runaway wreck
Of a speed metal train going down

Babies can see
But they can't conceive
How it feels when you lose it all
Every child has it coming
Oh, yeah, everything in the whole wide world

In braving the downside
Of entering this place
I'll have you know
That you'll get your chance
To look into its face

Nostril flares
Revealing hairs
Of static electricity, yeah

After a few drinks
Some pills and a couple of spills
On a linoleum floor in a glass house
Up high in the hills

You'll be me
You'll be with me

We'll go down and lose it
Oh, but a fool has it coming
Oh, yeah, everything in this whole wide world
Everything in this whole wide world

Same street always going back around

Walking down Alex Bell
Walking down Alex Bell
Walking down Alex Bell
Thinking of Alex

I see you around
Every time there's a ghost in town
I see you around
Every time there's a ghost in town
I see you around
Every time there's a ghost in town
I see you around
Every time there's a ghost in town
