Plastik Heads Lyrics - Dirty Pretty Things

You sauntered up and you said, Hows tricks? 

You cant mix drugs with politics 

But we took and talked and lost the plot 

And after that everything seemed fine 

In this distinct and beautiful collide 

We drag each others worlds down under the tide 

With intoxicated hands 

Cold, cold hearts and well-laid plans 

Are you listening? 

Are you listening? 

As the days like the waves 

Pile up behind you 

La, la, la la la, keep it on 

Melt my plastic heart 

And help me move on 

Why cant I move on? 

How do we escape the great pails of pouring rain? 

Go to a foreign island or a house in Spain 

Going, la le la le la le, oh 

Oh, how Id kill to go 

So, erect the girders and rivets in 

A life of buildings and medicine 

Well, we all make the same mistakes 

Our pitfalls pull us together 

Are you listening? 

Are you listening? 

As the days like the waves 

Pile up behind you 

La, la, la la la, keep it on 

Melt my plastic heart 

Help me move on 

We kicked this round my bedroom floor 

La la la la 

Had the daylight hours but you wanted more 

La la la la 

But the time, the time has drifted away 

Are you listening? 

Are you listening? 

As the days like the waves 

Decisively pull us under 

La, la, la la la, keep it on 

Melt my plastic heart 

Help me move on 

And on, and on, on and on, and on 

Theres friends for life and acquaintances 

Theres romance from great distances 

Theres been so many casualties 

But I cannot wallow over these, oh no
