I Heart Huckabees movie - Revolving Door lyrics

Song by Jon Brion<br /><br>

You slit your own throat<br>

You won’t be around for long<br>

Though not a dying breed<br>

Cause they’ll always be a market for greed<br>

And they’ll always be someone to replace you<br>

<br>

Though they may not have the courage to face you<br>

Now it’s too late to settle scores<br>

You’re going back the way you came before<br>

Back through the revolving door<br>

<br>

You’re sick of your skin<br>

Though you act like you’re not for now<br>

But the rot has set in and it could be as little as an hour or two<br>

Before it completely devours you<br>

<br>

And the ones who should stand up are afraid to<br>

You were smug while you held the floor<br>

You’re going back the way you came before<br>

Back through the revolving door<br>

<br>

I understand the concessions that you make<br>

I know what it’s like to get backed into a corner<br>

I sympathize but I don’t take your side<br>

<br>

Hey you<br>

You act like no one could tame you<br>

But when it counted you never came through<br>

Well, with one look at what they paid you<br>

Well, most folks would hardly blame you<br>

<br>

I’m not surprised that this is what it came to<br>

You’re going back the way you came before<br>

Back through the revolving door<br>

And one day you could be back for more<br>

Oh – more – oh – more – oh – no<br>

<br>

<br>
