lyrics

One rainy day, inside the boredom has her mind
There must be villains to disarm there on the other side
That lucifer's been down her neck all yesterday
For now she mustn't get away or she'd be satisfied

Such a textbook to be heading for
That sandy-coloured planet tonight

This is for when he lets you down
Always under, no big wonder
Don't get away, don't get away
Token bitch and none the richer
You never ever had it so good

The op-eds taking lead to point her to the fray
And when the wine is going flat there's one more thing to mourn
The frontiers have brought her luxury complaints
It's easy wearing minor scars when most are never born

And what better way to mope than on
That sandy-coloured planet tonight

This is where he will get you down
Always under, no big wonder
Don't get away, don't get away
Token bitch and none the richer
Sand is the colour of your town

Her mind as shallow as the dunes
On sandy-coloured planets alike

This is for when they let you down
Always under, no big wonder
Don't get away, don't get away
Stay a bitch and none the richer
You never ever had it so good
