UNDERGROUND LOTTERY

FLUSHING VELVET AND SHOOTING ICE
AND THEY’RE ALWAYS FULL OF BAD ADVICE
IF YOU DON’T TALK MUCH THEN COME SIT WITH ME
CUZ I’M FULL OF LONER SYMPATHY

THEY WILL ALWAYS LET YOU DOWN
SOMETHING FAMILIAR IN THE SOUND
WATCH ‘EM BUM ANOTHER ROUND
WELCOME TO THE UNDERGROUND

HEAR ‘EM FLAP THEIR LIPS ABOUT THE SCENE
SAY YOU WON’T SELL OUT, BUT NOBODY’S BUYING
SO FAIL TO KEEP YOUR TEEN INTEGRITY
HOPE YOU DO ENJOY THE SHINE OFF IN GEM CITY

THEY WILL ALWAYS LET YOU DOWN
SOMETHING FAMILIAR IN THE SOUND
WATCH ‘EM BUM ANOTHER ROUND
WELCOME TO THE UNDERGROUND LOTTERY

FADING GLITTER AND PAYING TOLLS
PAID THE DUES AND STRIKEOUTS, OH THE STORIES TOLD
IF YOU DON’T WIN MUCH THEN COME SIT WITH ME
CUZ I’M FULL OF LOSER SYMPATHY

THEY WILL ALWAYS LET YOU DOWN
SOMETHING FAMILIAR IN THE SOUND
WATCH ‘EM BUM ANOTHER ROUND
WELCOME TO THE UNDERGROUND LOTTERY
