"Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong But…"

I've seen your eyes as they fix on me

What is he doing? What on earth's the plan? Has he got one?

You'd better give me some pointers

Since you are the big rocket launcher and I'm just the shotgun.

Well I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes

That might be a surprise but it's true

That I'm not like you and I don't want your advice

Or your praise or to move in the ways you do and I never will.

Cause all you people are vampires

And all your stories are stale

And though you pretend to stand by us

I know you're certain we'll fail

I've seen your eyes as they fix on me

Full of confusion

Your snarl is just so condescending

Try to explain that we're onto a win

If the fee we are in

Near recoups what we're spending

He says, I can't believe that you drove all that way

Well how much did they pay ya? How much did they pay ya?

You'd've been better to stay round our way

Thinking 'bout things but not actually doing a thing

Cause all you people are vampires

And all your stories are stale

And though you pretend to stand by us

I know you're certain we'll fail

Cause all you people are vampires

And all your stories are stale

And though you pretend to stand by us

I know you're certain we'll fail

All you people are vampires!
