Shelf Life (保存限期) - Love and Rockets

How many A&R men does it take to change a light bulb

I'll get back to you on that

How many spells and dollars does it take to make the magic

Of pulling legends from your hat

Will they take another sucker for an undersell

Regarding them with compliments and muskatelle

A honeymoon in Vegas in a plush hotel

Well that's a sad town in the morning light

How many bullets in the back does it take

To kill a singing cowboy

How much more of this b******t can you take

From the charming envoy

When you're making with the ballpoint on the dotted line

The Devil's in his heaven and your hair sublime

You fit the mold for stardom and the big bells chime

But it's gold leaf on a wild wild wind

And they're serving up your future with a twist of lime

Paying you in dollars for the perfect crime

And you're scratching off the silver for a nail of grime

And pissing in that bitter wind

Last month's color you've passed your sell by date

And your days are numbered

What is you shelf life What is you shelf life

What is you shelf life What is you shelf life
