Verse Two (as verse one):
--------------------------------------
We used to sit and talk about primsl scream
To exorcise our past was our adolescent dream
But now it's sink or swim since your memory fails
Now in Neptune's kitchen you will be food for killer whales
And on the crucifix his mother made
Hangs one more martyr to the hit parade
(Chorus -- Repeat)
