Lyrics

I can’t Read and I can’t Write Down
I don’t Know A Book from Countdown
I don’t Care Which Shadow gets me
All I‘ve Got is Someone’s Face

Money Goes to Money Heaven
Bodies Go to Body Hell
I Just Cough, Catch the Chase
Switch the Channel Watch the Police Car

I can’t Read Shit Anymore
I Just Sit Back and Ignore
Cause I Just can’t Get it Right, Can’t Get it Right
I can’t Read Shit, I can’t Read Shit

When you See A Famous Smile
No Matter Where you Run your Mile
To be Right in that Photograph
Andy, Where’s my Fifteen Minutes

I can’t Read Shit Anymore
I Just Sit Back and Ignore
I Just can’t Read Shit Anymore
Just can’t Get it Right, Get it Right,
I can’t Read Shit, I can’t Read Shit
