[Ginger] A world awaits an icon to make a connection A mother complex begs stellar direction He's taking the chair He's living the life He's fucking pretty girls every night But he ain't fucking the wife And he's doing the things we'll never do and he's genuine Judging by the size of his crew With a face the eye can easily digest He's down with the big boys and up there with the big best A Lennon, A Presley, a Muhammad Ali they give us there life Literally it's got to be all or nothing, death or glory 'Cos the history books could always use a new story Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon The negative cycle is waiting for the next one Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon This is not open for negotiation He's living fast, he's dying slow and nobody knows That the audience approval is the only approval He's known to be real "at least as real as a rock N' roll show" Then alone again is the man, but he can't stand being alone Fighting the fear that is the fade of the glow and the length of the time we expect him to give 'Cos someone's got to live like we all want to live and we all want to see But don't want to be "Cos someone's gonna die and it ain't gonna be me" Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon The negative cycle is waiting for the next one Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon This is not open for negotiation And at times when he's fighting the hate that he feels for the loneliness Feels for the home that he makes and takes straight to a different place Where a new set of faces appear to relate but he can't help equate the relationship To the time he swore his love to a whore Another name on the door, another 1:2:3:4 But the same old crown standing there on the floor Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon The negative cycle is waiting for the next one Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon This is not open for negotiation Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon The negative cycle is waiting for a live one Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon And when you're done pass it over to the next one "And will the last one out please leave the light on?"
