Wire Who Has Nine? lyrics

[Shotput by burial today it hurts?]
Work on ethics, champagne to inject
Mascara ha-ha's make up memorials
Retouched pictorials, (it's) a cover-up job

View of the park
Up in lights
Scared of the dark

[With worries clinic, sold out and stolen?]
The face-lift is falling as the curtain comes down
Has-been revivals with co-star attractions
Knee-jerk reactions, the bouquet is accepted

View of the park
Up in time
Safe in the dark


The sleeping partners were just like brothers
Different mothers without a father in sight
Sing song torture, preview distress
[Supplement distress?], dead sea car

Up and tied
No other spark
Up and tied
(Who's) Scared of the dark

Up in lights
View of the park
Up in lights
Afraid of the dark
