Gary Numan's Porsche Lyrics - Fatima Mansions

In a half-faced mask made of tinted glass 

Walking streets of creased wet concrete 

where her curse [attacks] sometime 

by the screaming chain-store signs 

You can feel each bruise with each shakey hoof 

which conveys her through this limbo 

where the blue lights [at full tide] 

Deny the facts of her life 

When you ruled by his [????] 

[by his broken his children] 

You beat up on the Joneses 

[Only robots could kill me] 

Because you know he was with you 

when you buried your future 

you were lost and 18 

Lost 

CHORUS: 

You justify the use of force 

by the well-armed world that [did you so short] 

as the years roll on by like a drunk old horse 

and you purr like Gary Numan's Porsche 

See the midlife hacks with their [...] of cash 

get to live for long enough 

to see nostalgia and pastiche 

stored in leather and mesquite 

But they take out 'f'-words 

and they take out the 'p'-words 

and they take out the 'j'-words 

and they take out the 'zed'-word 

and they take out the 'u'-word 

and they take out the 'end'-word 

All that's left is the garbage 

but that will do--CHORUS 

On Gary Numan's Porsche 

it says, "Bring back the 60's, save the queen [but gas the poor]" 

Gary Numan's Porsche 

is waiting outside of the stage door 

so don't deface the room 

He'll be leaving soon...I hope 

Well, it's 80's Night, her remaining light 

as the Bedsit '81 fades into Suicide '94 

2,000,094 

and the future [we told] 

[like the snow-in ????] 

and the one which we live in 

Charmless and boring 

Gary, please, can you fix it? 

take us up in your spaceship 

Set us free in this Porsche 

which says... 

You justify the use the force 

by the well-armed world that knows you're cornered 

in the work of [...] 

there are better things to do than name the days--CHORUS
