Lyrics
THE BONES KNOW
Usher in, usher out
Trend is in, then down and out
I won't change, not anymore
I'm on my own, I'm on my own road
The bones know when to lick the machine
The bones know when to wipe it clean
The bones know when it feels obscene
The bones know, the bones know
Give it spin, build clout
Culture's gelatin, all you hear about
I won't change, I won't keep score
I'm on my own, I'm on my own road
(Chorus)
The come and they go
Line 'em up toe to toe
Always fast, never slow
Watch 'em shine, Watch them glow
In their brief cameo, then the death blow
(Chorus)
