Way To Go - Flotsam & Jetsam

Everybody’s watching, none of them I’ve ever met

Starring in the headlines no good news is death

Threats fly through the airmail, e-mail and express

Fax instructions for the bomb

A bone breaking game of chess

Starved and banged what a way to go

Slit wristed, run over and hanged

What a way to go

Pushed too far by numbers

Payments way past due

Additional tack on late charge

Who’ll be screwing who

Screwed my head so tightly

Feels like it’s gonna snap at the neck

If you’re gonna cheat with your own cards

At least you could shuffle the deck

Starved and banged what a way to go

Slit wristed, run over and hanged

What a way to go

Starved and banged what a way to go

Slit wristed, run over and hanged

What a way to go

Sweat it out in walls that both my shoulders touch

If I hadn’t lost everything else

My mind wouldn’t matter so much

Backed up on a pay way, free way, blue lights closing fast

I was promised before my eyes

I’d see my life flashing past

Starved and banged what a way to go

Slit wristed, run over and hanged

What a way to go

Starved and banged what a way to go

Slit wristed, run over and hanged

What a way to go
