Marky got with Sharon

Sharon got Cherice

She was sharin' Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease

Mikey had a facial scar

Bobby was a racist

They were all in love with dyin'

They were doin' it in Texas

Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain

Then he lost his leg in Dallas

He was dancin' with a train

They were all in love with dyin'

They were drinking from a fountain

That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down the mountain



I don't mind the sun sometimes

The images it shows

I can taste you on my lips and

Smell you in my clothes

Cinnamon and sugary

Like softly spoken lies

You never know just how you look

Through other people's eyes



Some will die in hot pursuit

In firey auto crashes

Some will die in hot pursuit

While sifting through my ashes

Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain

That is pouring like an avalanche comin' down the mountain



I don't mind the sun sometimes

The images it shows

I can taste you on my lips and

Smell you in my clothes

Cinnamon and sugary

Like softly spoken lies

You never know just how you look

Through other people's eyes



[Chorus Backwards]



Another Mikey caught a knife

While arguing in traffic

Flipper died a natural death

He caught a nasty virus

Then there was the ever present

Football player-rapist

They were all in love with dyin'

They were doin' it in Texas

Billy caught a bullet

But it only hit his leg

Well, it should have been a better shot

And got him in the head

They were all in love with dyin'

They were drinkin' from a fountain

That was pourin' like an avalanche comin' down t
