Manic Street Preachers – Methadone Pretty (With Lyrics)

17th song from the incredible Manics debut album, Generation Terrorists. I am nothing and should be everything You’re methadone pretty, surrender in pity Intentional destruction germ Eats your thoughts and make you happy They wanna piece of your skin Pump it safer than, than a suicide Methadone pretty Methadone pretty Heart beats like a refuge machine Pretty hostage mass, licensed to obey Xerox days to acceptance Decline accelerates into prejudice They wanna piece of your skin Pump it safer than, than a suicide Methadone pretty Methadone pretty I accuse history, I accuse I accuse history, I accuse I accuse history I accuse history, I accuse I accuse history, I accuse I don’t need your history Wreckage inside all that’s real Another bought product, no reality Passive consumers with patrolled desires Mindless countdown to retirement They wanna piece of your skin Pump it safer than, than a suicide Gonna stay a terminal young thing An’ never gonna be methadone pretty Methadone pretty Methadone pretty Methadone
