You're not alive
until you start kicking

When the room
is spinning

And the words
ain't sticking

And the radio is all about
a runaway model

With a face like sin

And a heart like
a James Joyce novel

Saying "Sister, sister,
how I missed ya, missed ya

Let's go wrist to wrist

And take the skin off
of my blister"

If you're a rock star,
a porn star, a superstar

Doesn't matter
what you are

Get yourself a good car

Get outta here

But the boys in
the better land

You're always talking about
the boys in the better land

The boys in
the better land

But the boys in
the better land

You're always talking about
the boys in the better land

The boys in
the better land

Driver's got names
to fill two double barrels

He spits out "Brits out"

Only smokes Carrolls

And he's refreshing the world
in mind, body, and spirit

Mind, body, and spirit

You better hear it,
and fear it

Oh, that's the spirit

Saying "Sister, sister,
how I missed ya, missed ya

Let's go wrist to wrist

And take the skin off
of my blister"

If you're a rock star,
a porn star, a superstar

Doesn't matter
what you are

Get yourself a good car

Get outta here

But the boys in
the better land

You're always talking about
the boys in the better land

The boys in
the better land

But the boys in
the better land

You're always talking about
those boys in the better land

The boys in
the better laaaand
