Lines On My Face
i have lines on my face
i am here,
for the thrill of your chase
someone though,
is always trying to unlock my case
there is a dream factory
producing harmful waste
i am here,
for the thrill of your taste
i long for the mountain tops
stuck here at the base
just collecting clocks
i am here,
trying not to stop
there is a chimney stack i need to block
i turn on the cooker
it is cool and never too hot
there is always my dream factory
contents of which, are always a job lot
