Magnets Lyrics - Magnets - Vapors

The motorcade is never-ending 

The marshalls wave their wheel appeal 

Only some of them are breathing 

Only some know what to feel 

The generals grit their teeth and smile 

Just for a little while 

Until they think they can't be seen 

Then pour contempt through eyes that seem like magnets 

Small and hard 

Magnets 

They rolled away down through the arches 

The wet streets shined confetti-lined 

The sun burns everything it touches 

The motorcade dissolves the mind 

The madman grits his teeth and smiles 

Just for a little while 

As though he knows he can't be seen 

Then pours contempt through eyes that seem like magnets 

Small and hard 

Just like magnets 

Out of the crowd 

Just like magnets 

Kennedy's children all magnets 

Waste of time at the Alamo 

All the kids singing Go Johnny, go Johnny, go! 

All the cars parked out of view 

And someone on a roof with a job to do 

But the hotdogs sell and the cameras roll 

It's a star situation, but it's out of control 

There's a man with a message and it's written on lead 

There's a man who is god, but god is dead 

Still we grit out teeth and smile 

Just for a little while 

As though we think we can be seen 

We pour contempt through eyes that seem like magnets 

Small and hard 

Just like magnets 

Out of a crowd 

Just like magnets 

Kennedy's children all magnets 

Magnets staring up 

Just like magnets 

Burning the sky 

Just like magnets 

Kennedy's children all magnets 

Magnetized boys, boys, boys
