Structure + Lyrics
Intro riff (2x)
Verse (4x)
don't bother going through
your motions
nothing that makes sense
ever works out
don't kid yourself,
you know they want money
nothing can be good
on its own merit
Chorus (2x)
spinning and spinning
do you believe in what
you want?
dancing in plastic,
shake up snow
do you believe in what
you want?
Verse (4x)
put your trust in simple
acts
make the flyers get
them up all over town
don't kid yourself,
you know they want money
please keep in sight
what makes you care
you have it always
Chorus (2x)
Bridge (4x)
your camera flash
on us, meaningless
Verse (2x)
you cannot waste a single
night
what you ignore is priceless
to me
Chorus (2x)
End chord
