Life Classes / Life Model Songtext
von The Auteurs

Bruises from your head to your toe
There are marks all over you
There′s no place for you to hide
Since they painted you black and blue

Blue's the colour I made your eyes
Charcoal the hair
If I fall down don′t be surprised
This surveillance was unprepared
I'm watching over
Your every move
Life classes life model
Life lessons due


Show me where to disrobe dear
Where I'm out of view
Say something good or shut your mouth
This surveillance is overdue
I′m watching over
My every move
Your lesson life model
Life lesson too

And there′s no way to hold your head
So hold your head that low
And there's no way to hold your head
So those things just don′t show

Bruises from your head to your toe
There are marks all over you
There's no place for you to hide
Since they painted you black and blue
Now I′m a cowboy
Carrying a gun
Life lesson begun

Life lesson begun
