UNDER A STAR

Lay you down to sleep
Forever worship me

Touch down, tinsel town
Dreams of recognition in their heads
The king hunts pretty things
Throws pool parties stalks them for his pets

The monster behind his eyes
The Insect behind his fly
Lured in like a spider
Disappears into my light forever

Under a star
Lay you down to sleep
Under a star
Forever worship me

Let down all over town
Bookings cancelled ‘coz she won’t undress
Knives out muffled shout
One less mouse with a monopoly complex

The monster behind his eyes
The Insect behind his fly
Lured in like a spider
Disappears into my light forever

Under a star
Lay you down to sleep
Under a star
Forever worship me

My revenge is immortality
The pretties only dreamt of fame
He was retired under six feet of concrete
And a star with someone else’s name

Under a star
Lay you down to sleep
Under a star
Forever worship me

Under a star
Lay you down to sleep
On the boulevard of broken dreams
