Um & Aargh |
| You couldn’t run, you couldn’t hide |
| They had their spies out on your track |
| You had some fun, you took a ride |
| You tried to fit into the pack |
| But all the time they knew you lied |
| They knew that you’d be bound to crack |
| Hospital Carolina |
| You dreamed of stars, of open cars |
| And surfing out on Malibu |
| You drank in bars and Miromars |
| You shot the dice and skimmed the pool |
| You thought of saving your integrity |
| Before it came up for renewal |
| Hospital Carolina |
| So who needs Rudolf Steiner? |
| Let me hear you now! |
| «Um and aargh, um and aargh, um», was all he told me |
| I’m catching beriberi and I’m feeling so low |
| «This is much too good for the people» he said |
| I said «don't people have minds of their own?» |
| And it’s better that you agree |
| In this best of best industries |
| I was in the midst of a dream |
| I felt like shouting something obscene |
| A man appeared, he had a beard |
| He had a dog right at his feet |
| I said, «My song?», he said «It's long |
| It’s got no balls», I said «That's neat |
| But it took me thirty years to write» |
| He said, «Your image is incomplete» |
| Hospital Carolina |
| The curtain’s up, the spotlight’s on |
| They’ve got you spitting at the crowd |
| A needle match, a little scratch |
| And you’re above the busy cloud |
| Going out and getting in a fight, it makes the news, so you’ll be proud |
| Hospital Carolina |
| So who needs Rudolf Steiner? |
| Let me hear you now! |
| «Um and aargh, um and aargh, um», was all he told me |
| I’m catching beriberi and I’m feeling so low |
| «This is much too good for the people» he said |
| I said «don't people have minds of their own?» |
| And it’s better that you agree |
| In this best of best industries |
| I was in the midst of a dream |
| I felt like shouting something obscene |
| They’ve washed you up, they’ve squashed you up |
| You find your brain is going bad |
| You played the game, it’s all the same |
| The wisest fools are really mad |
| You take a gun, to save our son |
| And, God, his brain is bullet-proof |
| And so it’s welcome to the ministry of everlasting truth |
| Hospital Carolina |
| So who needs Rudolf Steiner? |
| Let me hear you now! |
| «Um and aargh, um and aargh, um», was all he told me |
| I’m catching beriberi and I’m feeling so low |
| «This is much too good for the people» he said |
| I said «don't people have minds of their own?» |
| Shooting to the top, be a great tin god |
| Then plummet to obscurity well |
| And it’s better that you agree |
| In this best of best industries |
| And it’s better that you agree |
| In this best of best industries |
| And it’s better not to presume |
| Or it’s you that we will consume |
| And it’s better that you agree |
| In this best of best industries |
| And it’s better not to presume |
| Or it’s you that we will consume |
| And it’s better that you agree |
| In this best of best industries |
