Kicks Or Consumption Lyrics - Dirty Pretty Things

After a month our friendship waned 

'Cause you're ambitious to a fault 

How did I let you in my brain? 

Just look in these western eyes 

I've been lost a time or two 

Not knowing what is evil 

Or where to go 

No prizes, no afterglow 

Nothing left for you 

But kicks or consumption 

Thought Japan was out of bounds 

But, oh, the boys just got to town 

Oh no, and it's happening again 

You and I have fallen out again 

Were empty skirts to number ones 

Why do I humor you in vain? 

Just look in these western eyes 

Ive been lost a time or two 

Not knowing what is evil 

Or where to go 

No prizes, no afterglow 

Nothing left for you 

But kicks or consumption 

Clawing at the windows when the wheels came off 

European playground turned out far too much 

She tells me other people get the best of me 

So maybe she will never get the best of me 

There must be a devil at the BBC 

I've been lost a time or two 

Not knowing what is evil 

Or where to go 

No prizes, no afterglow 

Nothing left for you 

But kicks or consumption
