kid's head full of forceps
going to take the world apart
and his doubt and his frustration
are a kind of beating heart
burns just like the sun
fits just like a glove
yes it does
tears right at the seams
bangs up the machines
cause it's fun and he wants to
wants to see what makes her tick
get her undone, strip her bare and
nd'then give every switch a flick

and it's the medicine
it's sustenance
he's got a big mouth to feed
and he's a growing boy
swallowing his toys
i like watching to see
what he'll eat

and he's chasing every loose end
through a house of smoke and mirrors
cause this world is a magician
makes the hunted disappear
cuts just like a knife
floats just like a kite
it's all right
burns just like the sun
fits just like a glove
yes it does yes it does yes it does yes it does...

kid's alright

I think that the voice and guitar are awesome here. Really cool stuff. Iffy about the drums, but, hey, they work.
