Just another Sunday paddle boat ride
On a man made lake with another lady stranger
If I remain lost and die on a cross
At least I wasn’t born in a manger
I can sense somewhere right now I’m being prayed for
Seems like I always arrive on the same shore
From where my sails set maybe with one less lady than my vessel left with
Is that a threat?
Oh I’ve stayed scarce this last year yes, but be assured and unrest
I’m unavoidable like death this Christmas is this twisted?
Why be upset
I never said I didn’t have syphilis, miss listless
Hard like the bricks I pound my fists with
I mean she’s hard like the bricks that I pound with my fist
This is the fall of Mr. Fifths
Forged for the hordes and the ladies and lords
Set with fat chords in modern English
I know I know
There’s nothing more appealing
Than the sound of high heels
Down the marble tiled hallways of your district’s one allotted city-funded
Steiner school bilingual or montessori
Followed by a single high pitch scream followed by breaking glass
But could your anger be mapped into an interpretive dance
To a trip-hop track?
Could it be bowed out on strings?
Or strung into a pattern for a god’s eye to bring
To your alma mater’s holiday fundraiser boutique thing?
My god
Oh
God I’m sorry, I’m just being crazy
I’m sorry, I’m just being crazy, I know
Don’t pay attention to me okay?
Look at the fire
Everything’s totally fine
I feel a lot better now!
oky doke. Good for you. But I still hate it even 2 years after I made that comment, so you might as well fuck off if you think you are going to change my mind.
AH, I am in such agreement! This album changed my life and when you say this is your favorite band ignorant people want to throw around labels such as "hipster" because no has heard of it. In all actuality it is just that amazing, that raw, that fucking insightful. They take everything people are too afraid to speak aloud about the deepest of feeling and most ashamed actions and turn it into beautiful poetry and music. Then, they actually have the courage and soul to share it with the world.
