The Image Is Lyrics

Gary Numan The Image Is

I intrude on patience
I intrude on young hearts
I intrude on all such things
That can take you by surprise
Time and time again
So?

Ive no welcome for you
Ive no welcome for talk
Ive no welcome in my house
Ive tried too long you know
Time and time again

Oh look theres a man inside
The heads not the museum its supposed to be
We sleep with machines that breathe
And some even have names the executive dream

Were all so sincere
Ill sing a song from the film that broke your heart
Oh look at the smile that cracks
Tomorrow well be civilized
And buy the whole world clothes

We dont believe in you
Were specialized mechanics in repairing the bitch
You bounce around my head
You say its a little but Im sure its ok
