Lyrics
[Intro] This is a new song, it's called "The Pretty Things Are Going to Hell..." [Verse 1] What to wear? What to say? What to do on a sunny day? Who the phone? Who to fight? Who to dance with on a Sunday night? [Pre-Chorus] I'm reaching the very edge, you know I'm reaching the very edge I'm going to the other side this time I'm reaching the very edge [Chorus] You're still breathing but you don't know why Life's a bit and sometimes you die You're still breathing but you just can't tell Don't hold your breath But the pretty things are going to hell [Post-Chorus] I am a drug, I am the dragon I am the best jazz you ever seen I am the dragon, I am the sky I am the blood at the corner of your eye I found the secret, I found gold I find you out before you grow old I find you out before you grow old [Verse 2] What is eternal? What is damned? What is clay and what is sand? Who to diss? Who to trust? Who to listen to? Who to suss? [Pre-Chorus] I'm reaching the very edge, you know I'm reaching the very edge I'm going to the other side this time I'm reaching the very edge [Chorus] You're still breathing but you don't know why Life's a bit and sometimes you die You're still breathing but you just can't tell Don't hold your breath But the pretty things are going to hell [Outro] The pretty things are going to hell They wore it out but they wore it well The pretty things are going to hell They wore it out but they wore it well The pretty things are going to hell They wore it out but they wore it well The pretty things are going to hell They wore it out but they wore it well Yeah! I tell you now! You're still breathing but you don't know why You're still breathing but you just can't tell Don't hold your breath But the pretty things are going to hell You're still breathing but you don't know why Life's a bit and sometimes you die You're still breathing but you just can't tell Don't hold your breath But the pretty things are going to hell Oh well, hey
