i think i might have said too much
about a bag of gold
that i have hiding in the line of my coat
i think they probably know too much
about the things i've done
cause they're all breathing just a little too close
vultures are waiting
they're waiting to take me
but not this time
i had a taste of the dream
come to find it's not as sweet
as i thought it would be
tv shadows over me
in the desert of my mind
friends like water, hard to find
is there no one left to trust
vultures circle up above
ohhhhhh
they're flying, flying, flying
ohhhhhh
but i won't be dying, dying, dying
vulture, vulture
i see them all sniff around, damn i'm stuck
cause i'm too tired to get up right now
they all think i'm dead, to serve me up
but over my dead body, you better try your luck
vultures are waiting
they're waiting to take me
but not this time
i had a taste of the dream
come to find it's not as sweet
as i thought it would be
tv shadows over me
in the desert of my mind
friends like water, hard to find
is there no one left to trust
vultures circle up above
ohhhhhh
they're flying, flying, flying
ohhhhhh
but i won't be dying, dying, dying
ohhhhhh
they're flying, flying, flying
ohhhhhh
but i won't be dying, dying, dying
vulture, oh yeah
why don't you let me be
leave me with what i deserve
saying yeah, yeah
i'll go on living now
there's nothing left, oh scavengers
give up, give up, oh
oh, yeah
oh no
oh no
vultures circle up above
oh, yeah
oh, yeah
oh, no no
come on, come on, come on, come on yeah
i won't be dying
oh no
