I got a picture of a photograph Of a wedding in a shell It's just a burning ancient memory I never kiss and tell So turn it up and burn it There's a hole in your head There's a hole in your head Where the birds can't sing along Does anybody know How the story really goes? How the story really goes? Or do we all just hum along? Sell your soul and sign an autograph Big bang baby, it's a crash, crash, crash I wanna cry but I gotta laugh Orange crush mama is a laugh, laugh, laugh Spin me up, spin me, spin me out Station to station, send me up and out Is this what life and love is all about? I think, I think so We used to see in color Now it's only black and white Yeah, it's only black and white 'Cause the world is color blind Does anybody know How the story really goes? How the story really goes? Or do we all just hum along? Sell your soul and sign an autograph Big bang baby, it's a crash, crash, crash I wanna cry but I gotta laugh Orange crush mama is a laugh, laugh, laugh Nothing's for free Nothing's for free Take it away boys Nothing's for free Nothing's for free Take it away boys So turn it up and burn it There's a hole in your head There's a hole in your head Where the birds can't sing along Does anybody know How the story really goes? How the story really goes? Or do we all just hum along? Sell your soul and sign an autograph Big bang baby, it's a crash, crash, crash I wanna cry but I gotta laugh Orange crush mama is a laugh, laugh, laugh Nothing's for free Nothing's for free Take it away boys Nothing's for free Nothing's for free Take it away boys So turn it up and burn it There's a hole in your head A hole in your head Where the birds can't sing along Does anybody know how the story really goes? The story really goes? Or we all just hum along?
