Album : Casanova
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I see oriental paper globes
Hanging like decomposing cocoons
While exotic candles overload
The dusty hair with their stale perfume
And I see lentils, beans, seaweed and rice
In jars of the windowsill
And it ain't hardly enough to feed the mice
Running behind the the lines of allergy pills

All these things will come to pass
When heroes of the middle class
Face up to their responsibilities

I see an Indian fertility God
He's got thirty seven limbs to spare
And tasteless tie-dyed tablecloths
That double up as evening wear
And I see naked bodies twist and turn
On the futon of dreams fulfilled
But their three-year-old kid seems unconcerned
He'd rather swallow all those allergy pills

I see unspeakable vulgarity
Institutionalised mediocrity
Infinite tragedy
Rise up little souls- join the doomed army
Fight the good fight- wage the unwinnable fight
Elegance against ignorance
Difference against indifference
Wit against shit

My words fly up to heaven, my thoughts remain below
Words said without feeling never to heaven go

All these thing will come to pass
When heroes of the middle-class
Face up, repent and pay the price
For accidentally creating life
An oversight for which they must atone
And sacrifice their own
I see oriental paper globes   Hanging like decomposing cocoons    While exotic candles overload   The dusty hair with their stale perfume   And I see lentils, beans, seaweed and rice   In jars of the windowsill   And it ain't hardly enough to feed the mice   Running behind the the lines of allergy pills      All these things will come to pass   When heroes of the middle class    Face up to their responsibilities      I see an Indian fertility God   He's got thirty seven limbs to spare   And tasteless tie-dyed tablecloths   That double up as evening wear   And I see naked bodies twist and turn   On the futon of dreams fulfilled   But their three-year-old kid seems unconcerned   He'd rather swallow all those allergy pills      I see unspeakable vulgarity   Institutionalised mediocrity   Infinite tragedy   Rise up little souls- join the doomed army   Fight the good fight- wage the unwinnable fight   Elegance against ignorance   Difference against indifference   Wit against shit      My words fly up to heaven, my thoughts remain below   Words said without feeling never to heaven go      All these thing will come to pass   When heroes of the middle-class    Face up, repent and pay the price   For accidentally creating life   An oversight for which they must atone   And sacrifice their own
