Cancer

Birds in the trees they're singing to me

And they're made of cancer

The boys in the band and the girls in the street

They're made of cancer

The words that I sing and the chords that I play

Are made of cancer

Doctors say stay awake stay alive stay inside

That's the answer

Your days will be numbered

Your days will be fact

Scarlet tattoos on the arm

No time to think and you cannot relax

No one is innocent now

Don't touch your children and don't touch your wife

You don't know where they have been

The neighbors are watching the neighbors are talking

And you don't know what they have seen

The paint on the walls and the film that I saw

Are made of cancer

The birds and the trees and the birds and the bees

And they're made of cancer

The chords that I play and the words that I say

Are made of cancer

Doctors say stay awake stay alive stay inside

That's the answer

Your days will be numbered

And you will be numbered

A scarlet tattoo on the arm

You can not think and you can not relax

No one is innocent now

Don't touch your children and don't touch your wife

You don't know where they have been

The neighbors are watching the neighbors are talking

And you don't know what they have seen

Your days will be numbered

And you will be numbered

A scarlet tattoo on the arm

You can not think and you can not relax

Something is going around

Don't touch your children and don't trust your wife

You don't know where they have been

The neighbors are watching the neighbors are talking

And you don't know what they have seen
