Lyrics for Slow West Vultures

Breaking the signal so it's totally unreadable Drinking the dregs, eating the utterly inedible We do what we do All for you All dressed up, black hat and white cane Slowly circling the drain Ready for the future Ready for the world about to come Shooting the sequel before the treatment's even finished Sending numbers off the monojects as our slight returns diminish We are what we are Get in the goddamn car Smiling faces flawlessly rehearsed We are sleek and beautiful, we are cursed Ready for the future Ready for the world about to come
