Lyrics Jack's Mannequin

Jack's Mannequin

Drop Out - The So Unknown

I have become increasingly

Overwhelmed but not discouraged

And soon I’ll leave the infirmary

Feeling well

But lacking courage

Courage

And now the rockets fly above

Passing over

Cape Canaveral

There’s the woman with the drugs

In the cafe

By the launch pad

By the launch pad

And she is ‘gonna

Ring me up

On my Cellular Phone

So I know I’m not alone

In a world full of vampires

Come on darling

Talk me down

On that Cellular Phone

Because I can’t get home

I’m a slave to the wires

I’ve done this before

I will do it more

I have become increasingly

Overwhelmed when

I’m in public

I’m not so patient when they stare

There’s a fighter

Somewhere underneath this skin and bones

And do you know what I mean?

What I mean when I say that this girl

Has got a thing for my machine

And she is ‘gonna

Ring me up

On my Cellular Phone

So I know I’m not a lone

In a world full of Vampires

Come on darling

Talk me down

On that cellular phone

Because I can’t get home

I’m a slave to the wires

I’ve done this before

I’ve done this before

But I have given everything and more

Sometimes convinced I have the world to carry

Every day is war

And rockets fly from dusk ‘til dawn

I won’t be shaken

If ever there’s a time

Where I am gone just know I’m waiting

For you to ring

For you to ring...

Me up on my Cellular Phone

So I know I’m not alone

In a world full of vampires

Come on darling

Talk me down

On that Cellular Phone

Because I can’t get home
