My Stars
Alice Cooper · Trilogy [2005]
So far
No one's callin me home
Space brain
Vagabond
Living on my own
Come all ye faithful
You know all you people should come to me
I'll make you arms work
And I'll make your legs work
I'll make you see
Ladada dadada dadada dadada da da dum
Whoa, yeah
Well I swear by the air
I'll be made to breathe
You'll pay very dear for this banishing deed
The power alone stored in my little hand
Could melt the Eiffel Tower
Turn the Sphinx into sand
Oh no
Thar she blows
Spreadin crazy news
All night
Cannonball
Loves to light the fuse
And everyone blows up and nobody grows up to fill
Dad's shoes
But that doesn't matter cuz no little boys really wanted to
I stared at the squall line
I stared at the fault line
I see a funnel black there
I think I see a crack there
Landscapes alive
And it's movin my feet
All I need's a Holocaust
To make my day complete
My Stars
