Crystal Mausoleum

You sacrificed yourself in the name of yourself
And no-one else
Lost in the scree of an icy peak
You went looking for fame on a package holiday
But it never came
Dogged by belief in a fantasy
Now you're lying in state in a crystal mausoleum
No name above the door
Lying in state in a crystal mausoleum
No-one was looking for a new conquistador
Not anymore
Lost in a cloud of your own mystique
You came and spent some cash and left a mountain of trash
And never came back
Your bucket list is a game of futility
Now you're lying in state in a crystal mausoleum
No name above the door
Lying in state in a crystal mausoleum
Lying in state with no name above the door

Olympic Sprinter

Up until now we thought he was a joke
A five dollar Warehouse DVD footnote
But then it turns out, he was an athlete, he was a singer, he was a winner and not just a dope
I guess there's more to him than meets the eye
Ooh ooh look at him go
He's an Olympic sprinter now
Ooh ooh look at him go
Nothing's gonna slow him down
Then he broke his leg, he couldn't run anymore
He said that's OK, I've got a music career in store
They said "you can't dance", he don't care about that
He's got a moustache and a great leather hat
And he's going straight to number nine
Ooh ooh look at him go
Yeah he's a New Jack Swinger now
Ooh ooh look at him go
Nothing's gonna slow him down
He's not a hero for any age
And he may have written his own Wikipedia page
But he's done things I can never do
Even a laughing stock can make their dreams come true
Ooh ooh look at him go
He's an Olympic sprinter now
Ooh ooh look at him go
Nothing's gonna slow him down
Ooh ooh look at him go
Yeah he's a New Jack Swinger now
Ooh ooh look at him go
Nothing's gonna slow him down
He's an Olympic sprinter now
Yeah he's a New Jack Swinger now
He's Olympic sprinter, he's a New Jack Swinger

Oh what a world it is, oh what a time
Oh what a world it is, I can't survive
Oh what a world it is, oh what a time
Oh what a world it is, barely alive
Tell me when it's over
