Face Cuts

Electric Six

Where you gonna be when your cells divide? 
They're coming and you've got no place to hide 
You better listen to the beautiful girl inside 
Who wants her face cuts 
Face cuts 
Just enough to survive 

Will you do whatever it takes to stay in the show? 
Cause right now you've got a face for radio 
I don't want to be the one to let you go 
But I'll surely leave you behind 

Picture yourself in Tinseltown 
Lights are flashing, applause is loud 
Waving to the throngs of adoring crowds 
Who want your face cuts 
Face cuts 
Just a touch of your life 

Anything worth having, girl 
Is never free 
Cause I look down on you 
Looking up at me 
Now you're going under for your surgery 
Well I'll be right there by your side 

You can be a shining star in the TV sky 
OR maybe do a little twinkling in the movies (oh my!) 
You'll be reaching for the brightest light 
Tonight 

Inside of an oyster is a beautiful pearl 
And it saddens me that you weren't long for this world 
But I'll still be on the lookout for the perfect girl 
Who gets her face cut 
Face cuts 
A face that cuts through the night 

And when I make all of my money you'll be on my mind 
It was the hardest thing for me 
To leave you behind 
It's a good thing that young suckahs are easy to find 
Cause I'm running out of time 

You can be a shining star in the TV sky 
OR maybe do a little twinkling in the movies (oh my!) 
You'll be reaching for the brightest light 
Tonight
