insanely jealous
She's walking down the street Me - I'm just invisible And who or where she walks with makes no difference to me The people that she meets She turns them into sideshows They're just here for their amusement That's not what I want to be But I'm insanely jealous of you Yeah, I'm insanely jealous of you The night is black and thick I wander past your window And I catch a cigarette thrown from a jewel encrusted hand It comes on pretty quick Exactly like a crocodile In search of a mirage across the undulating sand But I'm insanely jealous of you Yeah, I'm insanely jealous of you I don't know why the people want to meet When all they know is that they'll breed like rabbits in the end Cause ordinary people on the street They never know But if they can't be rabbits they'll be friends And I'm insanely jealous of the people that you see And I'm insanely jealous of the people that aren't me And I'm insanely jealous of you Yeah, I'm insanely jealous of you I just can't let it out This feeling of insanity Is thicker than a barge upon a shattered heap of coal I know what it's about Like crying from a nightmare And the one who lies beside you cannot hear to save a soul But I'm insanely jealous of the people that you know And I'm insanely jealous of the places that you go And I'm insanely jealous of you Yeah, I'm insanely jealous of you The damage that we do is just so powerfully strong They call it love And the damage that we do it just goes on and on and on Not long enough Paint is cracked and dry The name is now illegible And everything is lost upon the cracked and misted hull Beneath a yellow sky The lovers trip beside a ship But all I hear when they embrace is just the kiss of skulls But I'm insanely jealous of the people that you see And I'm insanely jealous of the people that aren't me And I'm insanely jealous of the places that you go And I'm insanely jealous of the people that you know And I'm insanely jealous of the hairs upon your back And I'm insanely jealous of the spiders in your path And I'm insanely jealous of the stains upon your feet And I'm insanely jealous of the stuff inside your feet And I'm insanely jealous of the things upon your bed And I'm insanely jealous of the jerk that's in your head And I'm insanely jealous of the people that you love And I'm insanely jealous of the fingers in your glove And I'm insanely jealous of you Insanely jealous of you Insanely jealous of you Insanely jealous of you
