Well I´ve seen your eyes as they fix on me
What is he doing? What on earth´s the plan? Has he got one?
You´d better give me some pointers
Since you are the big rocket launcher and I´m just the shotgun
Well I ain´t got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it´s true
That I´m not like you and I don´t want your advice
Or your praise or to move in the ways you do
And I never will
Cause all you people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you´re certain we´ll fail
Well I´ve seen your eyes as they flicked on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just so condescending
Try to explain that we´re onto a win
If you feel we get in
Near recoups what we´re spending
He says, I can´t believe that you drove all that way
Well how much did they pay ya? How much did they pay ya?
You´d´ve been better to stay round our way
Thinking ´bout things but not actually doing a thing
Cause all you people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you´re certain we´ll fail
Cause all you people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you´re certain we´ll fail
All you people are vampires!
What is he doing? What on earth´s the plan? Has he got one?
You´d better give me some pointers
Since you are the big rocket launcher and I´m just the shotgun
Well I ain´t got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it´s true
That I´m not like you and I don´t want your advice
Or your praise or to move in the ways you do
And I never will
Cause all you people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you´re certain we´ll fail
Well I´ve seen your eyes as they flicked on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just so condescending
Try to explain that we´re onto a win
If you feel we get in
Near recoups what we´re spending
He says, I can´t believe that you drove all that way
Well how much did they pay ya? How much did they pay ya?
You´d´ve been better to stay round our way
Thinking ´bout things but not actually doing a thing
Cause all you people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you´re certain we´ll fail
Cause all you people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though you pretend to stand by us
I know you´re certain we´ll fail
All you people are vampires!
