Dirty Pretty Things Kicks Or Consumption Lyrics

Kicks Or Consumption Lyrics

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

We're empty skirts to number ones

Why do I humor you in vain?

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



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
