Metronome Arthritis - At The Drive-In

strike this match

and let loose the oven’s breath

up the volume that

flirts with the UHF

swipe the magnet on the audio tape

these arsons of grand larceny

keep running… keep running in place

achilles tendon

severed from the race

quick to the throat

in this ink cartridge funeral

marble caps lock

you got a run on your pharmaceuticals

you better change it before the night grows old

set the temperature on delete

keep running… keep running in place

let’s hit the neighborhood today

you got a run on your pharmaceuticals

you better change it before the night grows old

prescriptions filled

now cut your suit and tie cuticals

you cut your fingernails way too short

what if forensics finds the answers

what if they stole my fingerprints?

where did i leave my book of matches?

we’ll find you…

we’ll find you…
