Crash and Burn

(John Foxx / Louis Gordon)

You're the lover of a methadone cellophane boy
He discovered all the retail chemical joys
You will always run to the devil you know
You will always wreck everything that you own

Chorus:
You're going to crash... and burn
You're going to crash... and burn
Crash and burn

When there's no expression on your face
And there's always smoke in everything you taste
When I watch you ripping up all the maps
But everything you say is so matter of fact

(Chorus)

He's a lover of... he's a lover of... he's a lover of lethal mechanical...
He's a lover of... he's a lover of... he's a lover of lethal mechanical...
He's a lover of... he's a lover of... he's a lover of lethal mechanical...
He's a lover of... he's a lover of... he's a lover of lethal mechanical...
He's a lover of lethal mechanical toys (lethal mechanical)
You're discovering the reflex animal joy
He will always search you out and destroy
You were born to accelerate and enjoy

(Chorus)

We're living through terminally splintered times
We're witnessing particularly vicious crimes
Your kind of character runs too fast (your kind of character runs too fast)
I know you're wondering if your looks can last (your kind of beauty will always last)

You're going to crash (crash) and (crash) burn (crash)
You're going to crash (crash... crash) and (crash) burn (crash)
You're going to crash (crash... crash) and (crash) burn (crash)
You're going to crash (crash) and burn
