Song | Back In Flesh |
Artist | Wall of Voodoo |
Album | Left of the Dial: Dispatches from the 80's Underground |
Someone smashed my alarm | |
It's got me on the edge | |
You know it's so sharp | |
(Aaaaaaaa...) | |
And you know I won't go | |
You know I won't go | |
I don't wanna go | |
(He won't go) | |
The corporation's boiling over | |
Everybody's taking over | |
Chorus: | |
And I'm back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
You better sign your time card now | |
They don't care about you anyhow | |
Sign in, your minimum cut | |
You're late again, your salary's cut! | |
Someone smashed my alarm | |
It's got me on the edge | |
You know it's so sharp | |
(Aaaaaaaa...) | |
And you know I won't go | |
You know I won't go | |
I don't wanna go | |
(He won't go) | |
The corporation's boiling over | |
Everybody's taking over | |
Chorus repeat | |
I won't go | |
(He won't go.) | |
I don't wanna go | |
(You must go!) | |
Is it time to go? | |
(The orders are in!) | |
Well, I'd rather go bowling! | |
(The lanes are closed!) | |
Maybe a little tennis? | |
(Your racket's got a hole.) | |
How about some baseball? | |
(Field's rained out.) | |
Maybe a little fishing? | |
(The fish are on vacation.) | |
Well, how about some golfing? | |
(The greens are overgrown.) | |
Well, what about some swimming? | |
(I don't think so!) | |
Well, what about this––and that–– | |
(No, no, no, no, no!) | |
Well, you can't tell me what to do! | |
Well, you can't tell me what to do! | |
(Hey, f**k you!) |
Someone smashed my alarm | |

You know I won' t go | |

The corporation' s boiling over | |

Chorus: | |
And I' m back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
Back in flesh | |
