XTC - Poor Skeleton Steps Out lyrics

Your rating:

thoughts, and others deeds.  Poor skeleton no doubt, one of these
 days, you can cast aside your human, be free.
   When the cities run with blood, and you drink our health in mud,
 "All flesh be gone."  Save your dry and joyous shout, for the day poor
 skeleton steps out.
   Poor skeleton steps out, sprung from his life sentence deep inside
 some muscle mask.  Poor skeleton devout, propping up truck drivers,
 filmstars, thieves or queens, your brave task.
   When technology is rust, and you write your book in dust, "All flesh
 be gone."  Can't buy tickets from a tout, for the day poor skeleton
 steps out.
   Poor skeleton steps out, liberated from sex organs and brown, black,
 white skin.  Poor skeleton you lout, don't you think that we might
 like to have been asked to join in?
   For good skeletons are we, and we're dying to be free, "All flesh be
 gone."  I will scream or sulk and pout, until my poor skeleton steps
 out.
   Look out, here comes bony boy
