I was walking in the evening
I was looking for something good, clean, fine, pure, straight
But instead I found the bunker wall and gate
It was open: I was free
I gave a token guarantee
Though I later knew I had promised more
With an I.O.U. I could scarcely score my way
Oh, but I herald Apocalypse anyway
I was a prime believer in the faith of 'I'
Yellow fever in the cat's eye
And it's everything you want
And it's everything you own
And it's everything you love
And it's everything you hate
And it's everything you touch
And it's everything you dream
And it's everything you trust
And it's everything you need
I got a heart like a rocket, I was out of control
I'd cleaned out my pockets for some luck to show
Really looking like a hopeless case
I found it in my hand, it was the Angry Ace
It's when he still tried to talk to me, one on one
He wants to give me his professional opinion
But I'm running, I just can't wait
I haven't got a moment to anticipate
Yes, I'm running, just can't stop
I've gotta get to the bottom just to get to the top
I've got the dark alleys and the open skies
I got the yellow fever from the cat's eye
Oh, I'll let you know how it goes in the ninth life
