Even The Scars Forget The Wounds

Grüvis Malt

Give your child a gun to kill a natural reaction

Wrap him up in film and he will be your movie star

It's a sad world...but even the scars forget the wound



So natural to keep the world at your feet

The same children run from vegetables

That speak daily to the dead

It's natural, oxygen dirt bloodstains skin and sexual tension

Wanting more than you can have

Having more than you know what to do with

It's natural, running in front of cars

You'll probably live forever

Paint your face with plastic, naturally

Smile like a sunrise

Smile like a cash register

A smile like only a lonely child can do

He's your last four dollars so spend him well

Like only a lonely child can do

Like only a lonely child can do



Security on a Saturday morning

Fishing glory out of the garbage with a rope of gold



We don't look so good, anonymous bruises and such

Who knew "forgive and forget" would be used as a crutch

Making yea-yea-guy-sparkletooth-photo-op-agreements with our perpetrators

We pay allegiance to the Worldwide Windshiled Wiper.

And it could be a good thing to limp and smile at the same time

But not if you'll be limping through a funeral line

History is last year's fashion design:

Forgetting the whole thing I just said so you can hear my next rhyme.



So natural to keep the world at your feet

Got your name in a book somewhere, there's no need to speak

It's natural oxygen tanks sweat stains Pre-milenium tension

Everything you own in numbers

Looking for love and all you find are numbers

Buying gifts for 146-862 47, 67, 37

XO XO

Natural like maltodextrin and Yellow #5

Life's glow comes from the shoeshine

Naturally one important piece in a big machine

Plug the incubator in and read a magazine

The children will be presidents and beauty queens

So



Smile like a factory

He's your last four dollars so spend him well

Like only a lonely child can do
