The Flamingos Follow

When they talk it's cold and sour
And no, there's nothing they can do now
They've had their way too many times

If you glare to get what you want
It'll become your look
And if there's dirt you've got on someone
You let it loose without a thought

Just let the poison spill, spurt from your throat
Hiss like steam 'cause the pressure's unreal
I'm not saying that it's not, you're causing a scene
You're wearing out that note, you scream until it's gone
You scream until it's gone, gone, gone

No government check can reverse it
You'd need a royal eclipse of the tongue
Or is the pain that you endure now
Something you need? Well, you know how to get it now

And there's no climbing up that list
You just move down it one by one
You hate this and love that, it shows
You're insecure, but that's no excuse

Just tell them they lie, you tell them the truth
The things you won't take are coming in groups
The people abused the trust you had
And now you don't want it back

Just let the poison spill, spurt from your throat
Hiss like steam 'cause the pressure's unreal
I'm not saying that it's not, you're causing a scene
You're wearing out that note, you scream until it's gone
You scream until it's gone, gone, gone

When they talk it's cold and sour
And no, there's nothing they can do now
