lyrics

I've been waiting for the right time,
locked indoors, no sign of forced entry,
can you check your reminders?
On account of him falling through the floor,
scare mongered seventy two.

A fitting epitaph for something unhinged or dilated,
as often the case from the mouth of a babe.
But I can see whites around your eyes
from the wet through way of a want for nothing.

And then the glory fed arrived.

You know full well that I...

Saw It In A Film,
studied the inner workings to make an attempt on you.
But it was done by professionals
who knew what they were doing,
embroiled in choice
I want the luxury of choosing.
I've got the headcount and the words to match,
and I can blend in like cardboard in a hat.
And you might not notice, when it stops the fizz,
but I can't enjoy anything for what it is.

Pulling my head on the swing of a grandfather clock,
I conjure up images
and bring a voice to fill half the arena,
at the sound of play I break for the day.
Father, son and crass who wakes up to find
he's doctored in the night.

What did I do?
No overnight Parvati but i'll improve.
Rabbit on roundabout island,
Doppler zoom,
my attention is switched to something far removed,
of a cut that's expensive, but I'm chewing fat,
watching moving pictures rotate on your back.

Can you care recount vengeance just like that?
