Lyrics for When Yer Twenty-Two
Stuck in the perpetual motion Dyin' against the machine The whole thing leaves You a nothing instead of a these The sun is black and the black halos fly And your number is backwards again when you try The sound is so cute when you're twenty-two When you're twenty-two Eggs break when you walk on the scramble You're living against the machine The whole thing leaves You a nothing instead of a these The bone is cracked and the cracked eggshells fly And your number is backwards again when you drive The whole thing's removed when you're twenty-two When you're twenty-two Stuck in the motion Stuck in the perpetual motion Stuck in the perpetual motion
