Lyrics

WHERE THE PAIN STARTS<br />
<br />
Do you ever wonder who dragged you<br />
Down to this wretched, ragged earth?<br />
Who plundered and brown bagged you;<br />
Bound and gagged you at birth?<br />
<br />
You sleep bad and waken worse,<br />
With a furious, fist-shakin&rsquo; curse.<br />
The last shall not be taken first<br />
In this God-forsaken universe.<br />
<br />
You crawl across broken glass,<br />
Swim across a sea of gasoline,<br />
Wrestle a grizzly for that match<br />
That could blow you both to smithereens.<br />
Take three hits of pygmy poison darts<br />
That send your blood pressure off the charts.<br />
Start selling off your body parts <br />
Just to get to where the pain starts.<br />
<br />
You begin each day beaten down,<br />
Just knowing who you&rsquo;re gonna meet in town -<br />
That frustrated Buster Keaton clown.<br />
Laughter&rsquo;s a fleetin&rsquo; sound.<br />
<br />
You end each day in despair;<br />
More and more baggage to declare.<br />
No one said your life would ever be fair;<br />
It&rsquo;s broken beyond repair.<br />
<br />
You crawl across broken glass,<br />
Swim across a sea of gasoline,<br />
Wrestle a grizzly for that match<br />
That could blow you both to smithereens.<br />
Take three hits of pygmy poison darts<br />
That send your blood pressure off the charts.<br />
Start selling off your body parts <br />
Just to get to where the pain starts.<br />
It doesn&rsquo;t get any better than this.<br />
You try your best &ndash; they boo and hiss.<br />
They leave you with one last Judas kiss;<br />
Tell you you&rsquo;re not on Schindler&rsquo;s list.<br />
<br />
You crawl across broken glass,<br />
Swim across a sea of gasoline,<br />
Wrestle a grizzly for that match<br />
That could blow you both to smithereens.<br />
Take three hits of pygmy poison darts<br />
That send your blood pressure off the charts.<br />
Start selling off your body parts <br />
Just to get to where the pain starts.<br />
