Buzz Buzz

Cruisin' 'round this hopeless town,

Down the lovely streets of desire

You're my angel of mercy all dressed in white

And I'm a smokin' gun for hire

Takin' a walk on the wild side

Johnny's got a habit that he can't hide

Livin' life from high to high

When nighttime comes, you can hear him cry

Buzz buzz goes the needle

With each jolt of pain, I call out your name

Buzz buzz goes the needle

And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain

Day is night and night is day

Being alive just gets in the way

The twisting snake inside his brain

Whispers to him, "Time to kill the pain"

They told him opportunity was just around the corner

Well, he wore out his shoes tryin' to find that corner

He might just pick himself up again

Until it happens, until then

Buzz buzz goes the needle

With each jolt of pain, I call out your name

Buzz buzz goes the needle

And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain

He's not a new tattoo dedicated to you

As the ink and the blood mix with pain

It's a man on a white horse goin' nowhere

And the man has no face or no name

With the walls closin' in, he's runnin' for cover

He's spinnin' way out of control

He might just pick himself up again

Until it happens, until then

Buzz buzz goes the needle

With each jolt of pain, I call out your name

Buzz buzz goes the needle

And I sacrifice, not in vain, not in vain

Buzz buzz goes the needle

Each drop of blood is a token of love

Buzz buzz goes the needle

And I want a sign from above
