Lyrics
We met at the decathlon
You took off amongst the athletes, in paradox
How could you run at 1500-strong
You're yearning without learning my javelin reached your heart
Shotput
Into a record throw, but
You fall
To pieces when there's no one
Oh God
I wish you hadn't grown up
I'm old and dead
Unless a doctor shows up
You told me I'm a champion
Undress me by the bed, the cameras on
How could I bear my teeth in one more fight
In my dreams I see you holding up a scythe
Shotput
Into a record throw, but
You fall
To pieces when there's no one
Oh God
I wish you hadn't grown up
I'm old and dead
Unless a doctor shows up
