More Suicides Please

Office workers queue, two by two
The queues are getting longer by the hour
Downstairs the vultures from alternative cultures
Watch the lemmings jump off from the tower

They think it’s cute and the TV, to boot
See the loot in a mass migration
It’s a psychic phenomenon
Let’s hope it goes on and on
The city’s in to self-decimation

So take your lunch, take the kids
You’ve got nothing to hide
It’s where it’s at to do the splat
and be another Sydney suicide……….

So it’s down on your knees, if you please
Can’t you see that it’s entertainment ?
There goes my brother, he’s after the other
Cos he couldn’t keep up with the payments

We think it’s cute and the TV to boot
So come out from your hiding
It’s a psychic phenomenon
Lets hope it goes on and on
To see the office workers suiciding

Take the bus, take the train
Relax and enjoy and ride
It’s where it’s at to do the splat
And be another Sydney suicide

So take your lunch, take the kids
Think about the people that died
Its front page news to pay your dues
And be another Sydney suicide

MORE SUICIDES PLEASE
You can leave your keys
There’s no landing fees
Open weekends if you please

The weekdays best as there’s a crowd to impress
you can feel the power
Solid concrete at 80 miles an hour
See how you fare
Ooh cos I don’t care

but you ?! You can be aware

Everyone’s a hit at Australia Square
Everyone’s a star at Australia Square
Everyone’s a star at Australia Square
