VERSE 1
-------
		     
Emily Chambers would make it pay
			 
Everyone knew she'd turn out that way
    				
She turned her back and she'll be O.K
	  		
But she's not O.K at all

VERSE 2
-------
		     
Every night with the radio on (2nd time round 'with the lamp light on')
		     
Emily fears that the day won't come
    		      
The moon is there to do her harm
      		
She's not alright at all

CHORUS
------
      			  
Don't get arrested, don't buy a machine gun,
       			   
You're not on the run and you're not on the scene.
       		       
You're not so cool and you're not a jerk,
     			    
You may be a villain but no Patty Hearst
			
You're Emily Chambers and what's worse
     			  
Is a whipping wind and a box in a hearse.
      				   
And a trigger in your head and a pen in your hand,
				    
And the pain in the verse and the flat drying land,
				 
And the thin of the air and a pain that hurts
       		     		   	   
You're Emily Chambers in the universe, oh, oh
