"The Scream" lyrics - THE SCREAMERS

THE SCREAMERS
"The Scream"

I've gotta go
Through the motions
Real sharp
Wish me luck
Rev it up
My emotions
Gotta make myself a buck

Just forget about the fancy words
Don't waste 'em on a dream
Let's make sure it really hurts
Tear up our lungs and scream

This is a song 'bout a scream that turned sour
They took it away: the happiest hour
I was screaming out for you and me
They snatched my voice for all to see
And I told them, "Hey, let me scream "
Help me...Help me
Please let me scream
Help me
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me!

Life is a scream
Man is an engine
Blowin' off steam
An engine
With a vengeance
So they said "Hey, kid, we don't know what you mean"
"But you sure are a riot, you sure are a scream."
Yeah, a riot! Yeah, a scream!

Just forget about the fancy words
Don't waste 'em on a dream
Let's make sure it really hurts
Tear up our lungs and scream

They said hey, kid, we don't know what you mean
You sure are a riot, you sure are a scream
But you are the riot, and I am the scream
You are the riot, and I am the screeeaaaam
Eeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmm!!!!!!!!!!
