Skintrade lyrics

Artist  : Bob Mould 
Song : Skintrade



 Send "Skintrade" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Floodlight, arizona / the fire trucks rush in
Double wide double bed / specks of ceiling paint
fall off the tin
And they’re standing by / brow begins to moisten
as you take
Another hotshot to stiff you up / the room is
spinning now

That’s it, man / inhibitions fall by the wayside
Happy man / you don’t care what’s happening
To you now, it’s all one big blur of lights and
action
Later on, you find out
You’ve been had, you’ve been tricked, you’re
exposed, you’ve got it

Made in the skin trade with your heavy head and
heart, you fall apart
And the hole in your arm won’t heal the pain
you’re feeling
Made in the skin trade, darling / every stitch of
you has been revealed
And there’s nothing left to conceal

Hemispheres so high and mighty / velveteen and
chalk delight
You’ve become the new obsession of everyone that
you’ve caressed
But you can’t tell who recognizes you / can’t
tell who knows your face
Can’t tell anything, can’t tell anyone what
you’ve done, you’ve got it

Made in the skin trade with your heavy head and
heart, you fall apart
And the hole in your arm won’t heal the pain
you’re feeling
Made in the skin trade, darling / every stitch of
you has been revealed
And there’s nothing left to conceal
