"Roll Call (Reprise)" lyrics
"Roll Call (Reprise)"
On a long and winding grey paved street
Your breath the only friend
Chattering others surrounding you
You're going out again
It's a laugh and a gas new crowd
You tell yourself
While buttoning up a new red shirt
It's been a twenty years of doing this
Just the same night into night
Day into day
With your preset mind
Wake up with your preset mind
With no self control
And you decide to call the Roll Call
Of the socialites who mortified
Can't see as far as their next surprise, yeah
Happy with nothing but the sweet F.A. of the night
Believing that they're alive and well
But if asked they have nothing to tell
Except the words of a clashing rhyme
I'll calmed and out of sync
Even real sounds like a zero
To a brain in lip sync
Roll
Roll
Roll
Roll
On a long and winding grey paved street
Your breath the only friend
Chattering others surrounding you
You're going out again
It's a laugh and a gas new crowd
You tell yourself
While buttoning up a new red shirt
It's been a twenty years of doing this
Just the same night into night
Day into day
Forget your preset mind
Roll
Roll
Roll
Roll

The The - "Infected" I've got too much energy to switch off my mind,
but not enough to get myself organized.
My heart is heavy - my head is confused,

The Jesus And Mary Chain - "Blues From A Gun" I don't care about the state of my hair
I got something out of nothing
That just wasn't there
And your kiss kiss kiss

I'm never gonna get...
Gary Numan - "Cars" Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live
In cars
Here in my car
I can only receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In cars
Here in my...
