Resurrection Men Lyrics - The Lipstick Conspiracies - Thea Gilmore

They're coming with their stories and they're coming with their wine 

They got a copy of a Chopin tune and an old no-smoking sign 

They're mapping every person's life, aligning every chart 

They've got a kitchen knife and a power cable poised against each heart 

They say we are your morphine vision, we are your TV screen 

We are your chat show host, we are your magazine 

We've got trace elements in each fashion every trend 

So lets end this story kids see if you do it all again 

The resurrection men 

They're watching all those people in the corporate oceans tide 

The choreography of commerce, the backhanders and the lies 

They're erasing all the figures, all the dollars, all the dreams 

They say you can always tell a suicide by the length of the scream 

And we are your morphine vision, we are your other half 

We are your healthy living, we are your epitaph 

We've got your second chances dressed in an accident 

You want the next big bang then you can just send 

The resurrection men 

The resurrection men 

The resurrection men 

They're coming with their bank books, they're collecting every fare 

From burning nights in Nagasaki, frozen days in Val-d'Isere 

And now the walls crumble round Downing Street and Capitol Hill 

Its only murder if you twist the knife with intent to kill 

And they're coming with their butane, they're coming with their signs 

From the black and white divisions, the bloody wars and their front lines 

They fan the flames of degradation to a mariachi band 

'Cause the crimes always committed using someone else's hand 

And we are Your morphine vision, we are your sleepless nights 

We are your catechism, we are your final rites 

We've got your weakness pegged, each break and every bend 

You throw a tragedy we'll always attend 

The resurrection men 

The resurrection men 

The resurrection men 

The resurrection men
