lyrics

Hanging out with a Government Kid
Checking out the infinity clutches.
Stick around and watch him making a mess
He's a sucker for the girl in the crutches

It's so good to see you in another world
So good to see you with another girl
So good to see you in another world
So good to see you

You fell in love with a Government Kid
Patronising all the primitive masses
Took a trip to the media's edge
Forming obsessions with people in glasses

Slow it down, our frozen, black economy is crashing down
We're in flight all alone now

In spite of our own worlds, we're in flight all alone now

You've got to find some time to burn it down
You've got to burn it down right, slow it down
You've got to find some time to burn it down
You've gotta burn it down

Hanging out with a Government Kid
