Island Mental

V5.5

[Intro] (Clashing drums, immediate heavy guitar riff) Right! Look at ya! Living on an island! One, two, three, four! [Verse 1] You walk down the street with a brick in your face Starving for privacy, hating the space Don't say hello, don't dare make a sound Keep your eyes firmly glued to the ground! You care about nothing outside of your wall If the neighborhood burns, you won't care at all! [Chorus] Island mental! Island mad! The worst connection that we ever had! Lock the windows! Bolt the door! You don't want to see the world no more! No more! [Verse 2] You got a sister in another town But you can't be bothered to track her down "Oh it's too much effort, it's too far away" You couldn't care less at the end of the day! Blood means nothing, it's just an excuse To stay in your corner and rot in your juice! [Chorus] Island mental! Island mad! The worst connection that we ever had! Lock the windows! Bolt the door! You don't want to see the world no more! [Guitar Solo] (Sloppy, high-energy, classic 1970s punk guitar solo) [Bridge] (Bass heavy, vocals spoken-snarled) Keep yourself to yourself. Put your feelings on a shelf. Don't touch. Don't look. Just another page in a closed-up book! (Shouted) Open the door! [Outro] Cold, cold hearts! Miles apart! You're completely alone! Stuck on your own! (Snotty chuckle) Pathetic! (Sudden drum crash, guitar feedback rings out)
