Lyrics Take Another Shape - Electric Six

Of all the places I could be right now
You are the one I′d rather be
For all the faces that I've seen someone
Try to attach themselves to me
Now I′m underneath, the girl with the teeth
Brushing hair that isn't there
Pull back the sheets
And I declare
Don't let me die in a hellscape
American hellscape
Without the dolls I came in with
I′ll take another shape
Descend from a great ape
And bless the spades we′ve dug in with
Before anyone can make the first cut
Accept the terms and conditions
It's such a shame that we can make things up
Because of silly, silly traditions
Now the lady learns
That it′s my turn
As I burn through her millions
Let me visit her mouth
Before it all goes south
Don't let me die in a hellscape
American hellscape
Without the dolls I came in with
I′ll take another shape
Descend from a great ape
And bless the spades we've dug in with
Prop me up on flimsy boards
Put me in the helicopter
I do not seek rewards
I merely seek the doctor
And let me move towards
The light I′m moving towards
And I shall rock her
Don't let me die!
I do not seek rewards
The light I'm moving towards
It′s visible at night
When you see me on the television
Remember it was my decision
To cut the cord with this light
Take a plastic knife
