Lyrics - Cindy Of A Thousand Lives by Billy Bragg

Blue velvet
America
Half glimpsed in the headlights between the trees
Who punctured the beauty
And invited monsters such as these
The pig faced boythe corrupted clown
The grotesque figure who never come to town
Something brokensomething stained
Something waiting for the worms to claim
And you can never go there again
Except in nightmares
The voyeur who dares not come near
Knows excitment to merely the beginning of fear
My shadow came this morning
And left some candy in my shoe
They're always watching me
Watching the things
I do
Cindy of a thousand lives
Cindy of the
Stepford
Wives
I've looked at all the photographs
But
Cindywhich one of them is you?
