Lyrics : The Grand Destruction Game

I made eyes with a sailor
With a burned up hand
The cross-eyed lead singer
Of a bad bar band
I loved an elegant gangster
And a customs man

But then I fell for him
And that was the end

He was my gold plated scarab
He was my chosen one
He was my sandinista
And my royal bum
He was my used car salesman
And my wayward son

And then I fell for him
And that was the end

In the morning you may wake to find that I'm gone
Sad to go but you know I need to stumble on
In time with the passing of the days
You'll forget my name
It's strange, I know, the way some people play
But I'm just the same
The grand destruction game

I made eyes with a sailor
With a burned up hand
The cross-eyed lead singer
Of a bad bar band
I loved an elegant gangster
And a customs man

And then I feel for him
And that was the end
And then I feel for him
And that was the end

In the morning I may wake to find that he's gone
Sad and lonely but I know he too must stumble on
In time with the passing of the days
I may forget his name
It's strange, you know, the way some people play
But he's just the same
The grand destruction game
