Album: The Human Menagerie

Mirror Freak

Exhibition yourself, we¡¯ll hold a show on the shelf
Now we can feel a change is on the way
You¡¯re not a skin or a spiv
boy who are you trying to kid
you¡¯re jolly handsome, super,
wizard, okay ?
Would you resort to telling
all your friends lies
When they can see right through
your flimsy disguise ?
We all consider you far ouy
so there can be a little doubt
You¡¯re gonna make it in a big, big way
Oh, we can feel a new existence beginning
And the youbs have made a go at forgiving
And the new man he appears to be winning
What a shame, such a bore !
I don¡¯t wanna turn on tonite
Said I don¡¯t wanna turn on tonite

You pat your hand in the air
and when they ask you to say ";Yeah";
And they¡¯ll be happy to believe
you¡¯re both kinds
Then shake a fist or a leg
and prove the image is dead
Or the chances are you¡¯ll trip up their minds
Oh you¡¯re too cute to be a big rock star
But if you¡¯re cool you may not push it too far
Oh just believe in yourself
and take a tip from the elf
And sing a boogie to the image fatale
Oh, we can feel a new existence beginning
And the youbs have made a go at forgiving
And the new man he appears to be winning
What a shame, such a bore !
I don¡¯t wanna turn on tonite
Said I don¡¯t wanna turn on toniteYou feel Loretta¡¯s deep breaths,
you put a hand on her breast
You feel her come on like some movie-star chick
You slide her body across,
you fight so hard to be boss
But sweet Loretta, she knows all the tricks
So you perform like it¡¯s your very best show
You turn her on but she¡¯s never gonna know
Then you can shuffle your hips
or M-M-Mae West lips
But you¡¯re the same old thing we¡¯ve always known
Oh, we can feel a new existence beginning
And the youbs have made a go at forgiving
And the new man he appears to be winning
What a shame, such a bore !
I don¡¯t wanna turn on tonite
Said I don¡¯t wanna turn on tonite
