Climbing out of open windows,
Crashing down from broken stairs,
[ Kottke Leo Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
Keeping watch on smoking cinders,
Falling over burning chairs.

Tossed and crossed, and screwed in transit.
Broken, splintered, bruised and thrown.
Badly shattered, gale forced frighty,
Rushed across and shown alone.

Speech reduced by poor relations
strung from weeks of self-abused,
chopped up, churned out, weeks of greazy
Spark plugs burnt up power's fused.
