Like a rock, Like a planet, Like a ****ing atom bomb, I'll remain unperturbed by the joy and the madness That i encounter everywhere I turn I've seen it all along In book and magazines Like a twitch before dying Like a pornographic sea There's a flower behind the window There's an ugly laughing man Like a hummingbird in silence Like the blood on the door It's the generator Oh yeah, oh yeah, like the blood on my door Wash me clean and I will run Until i reach the shore I've known it all along Like the bone under my skin Like actors in a photograph Like paper in the wind There's a hammer by the window There's a knife on the floor Like turbines in darkness Like the blood on my door It's the generator
