Song lyrics

[Verse 1:]
I want an interesting synonym
To describe this thing
That you say we're all grandfathered in,
I'll use the search engine.
We've got much to discuss.
Too much to discuss over a bucket of balls,
I can recall the glow of your low beams.

[Verse 2:]
It's the big night in Tinsel City,
Life became a spectator sport,
I launch my fragrance called ‘Integrity',
I sell the fact that I can't be bought.
Have I told you all about the time that I got sucked into a hole
Through a handheld device?
I will flashback now and again, but I'm usually alright,
Thankfully, the process has been simplified
Since the last time you tried.

[Chorus:]
I've recognised the glow of your low beams numerous times,
I'll be by the Batphone if you need to get a hold
Making a selection, opening credits roll,
Panoramic windows looking out across your soul.

[Verse 3:]
You go in through the door,
Vengeance Trilogy wallpaper walls,
They have re-decorated it all,
They've changed all the lights and the bar's down the side.

[Chorus:]
I've recognised the glow of your low beams numerous times
Through fairly opaque blinds in the sitting room,
Vehicles will pass by, but I know when it's you,
I'll be in a nose dive in my flying shoes
Right behind your closed eyes like a memory from your youth.
I'll be by the Batphone if you need to get a hold
Making a selection, opening credits roll,
Killer Pink Flamingos, computer controlled,
Panoramic windows looking out across your soul.
