lyrics

Everything is out of order
The most you can hope for
Is about three quarters

The whole is always missing something
The best player
The best mover
Or the one who can actually sing

It's no way to treat a legacy
To get bogged down in legalities
But on the road to becoming legendary
There may be a few fatalities

Legend boy at least you'll never see
Your friends turning into enemies

They'll write books about
They'll make films about

Faces of ghosts on the magazine racks

They'll write books about
They'll make films about

See them in the supermarket
See them staring back

Everything is out of order
The surviving fragments
Are being kept by hoarders

The whole is always missing something
Some rarity
Some scarcity
Some unresolved longing

Send for the jigsaw police
To help to find the missing piece
Each collection is incomplete
They'll always lack that final release

Here's a place I never thought I’d see
It's called the memorabilia factory

They'll write books about
They'll make films about

Faces of ghosts on the magazine racks

They'll write books about
They’ll make films about

See them in the supermarket
See them staring back

They'll sing songs about
Go on and on and on about

I see your face on the magazine rack

They'll sing songs about
Go on and on and on about

I see you in the supermarket
I see you staring back
