[Ginger]      A world awaits an icon to make a connection   A mother complex begs stellar direction   He's taking the chair   He's living the life   He's fucking pretty girls every night   But he ain't fucking the wife      And he's doing the things we'll never do and he's genuine   Judging by the size of his crew   With a face the eye can easily digest   He's down with the big boys and up there with the big best   A Lennon, A Presley, a Muhammad Ali they give us there life   Literally it's got to be all or nothing, death or glory   'Cos the history books could always use a new story      Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   The negative cycle is waiting for the next one   Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   This is not open for negotiation      He's living fast, he's dying slow and nobody knows   That the audience approval is the only approval   He's known to be real "at least as real as a rock N' roll show"   Then alone again is the man, but he can't stand being alone   Fighting the fear that is the fade of the glow and the length of the time we    expect him to give   'Cos someone's got to live like we all want to live and we all want to see   But don't want to be   "Cos someone's gonna die and it ain't gonna be me"      Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   The negative cycle is waiting for the next one   Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   This is not open for negotiation      And at times when he's fighting the hate that he feels for the loneliness   Feels for the home that he makes and takes straight to a different place   Where a new set of faces appear to relate but he can't help equate the    relationship   To the time he swore his love to a whore   Another name on the door, another 1:2:3:4   But the same old crown standing there on the floor      Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   The negative cycle is waiting for the next one   Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   This is not open for negotiation   Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   The negative cycle is waiting for a live one   Nexus Icon, Nexus Icon   And when you're done pass it over to the next one   "And will the last one out please leave the light on?"
