Lyrics Michael Hutchence

Michael Hutchence

A Straight Line

Yeah we're just watching history

Now that the dogs are barking

Take a picture for your children

Make it real in FujiColor

Life in the junkyard's hard

Even when the dogs are sleeping

But if you win you lose the next spin

Madame, monsieurs, rien ne va plus

I watch the black and white bleeding

Don't you know the pain I'm in

I've been working all week

I've been thinking on my feet

And I've come to the end of my losing streak

Take a straight line

Take a straight line

Take a straight line

Take a straight line

Wave goodbye to your innocence

Sell it to the highest bidder

In a tight spot call for assistance

Is that American Express?

Get me out of here

I watch the black and white bleeding

Don't you know the pain I'm in

I've been working all week

I've been thinking on my feet

And I've come to the end of my losing streak

Take a straight line

Take a straight line

Take a straight line

Take a straight line

I'm up the top, looking down

Everybody looks just like ants

It would be so easy
