Cheekbones and hormones, your only self-defense   Lying through dinner and your rock and roll teeth again   You've harbored a coward and fed him full of broth   This nocturnal sadness, leave you pale as this tablecloth      Careful, don't you spill your dinner   That would be a good defense   Then you wouldn't have to sit here   On the fence      Cheekbones and hormones, he's the accidental man   Tell you in a stage whisper, about the boy who cried benefit   As the poet drags the darkness within him to the light   It's only in self-defense will they drag you out into the night      Careful, don't you spill your dinner   That would be your best defense   Careful, what you go and wish for      An idiot and a genius standing up to dine   Breaking man-made laws 'cause I only follow those that are divine   And only when you're chased, do you ever run fast   And it's wrong to commit a suicide, it's only in self-defense
