Lenders In The Temple |
A short delay, the parrot blues |
Little voices mimic you |
It’s not so hard to make that sound |
So watch your back, the Ides of March |
Cut your hair like Joan of Arc |
Disguise your will, they’ll find you out |
And when they do |
Look out |
There’s money-lenders inside the temple |
That circus tiger’s gonna break your heart |
Something so wild turned into paper |
If I loved you, well that’s my fault |
A bitch in heat, the alpha male |
Not something she’d ever tell |
Except when she got deathly high |
And out it came like summer rain |
It washed the cars and everything |
Felt clean for just a little while |
A telethon |
We drunk dialed |
Those starving children they ain’t got no mother |
There’s pink flamingos living in the mall |
I’d give a fortune to your infomercial |
If somebody would just take my call |
Take my call |
Take my call |
Hello |
Patterns in my mind now moving slow |
Sorrow all across the surface rolls |
Smoothing out the edges of the stone |
The lights are out. |
Where’d everybody go? |
Alone |
Erase yourself and you’ll be free |
Mandala destroyed by the sea |
All we are is colored sand |
So pay to ride the ferris wheel |
Smile, all that you can feel |
Is gratitude for what has been |
'Cause it did not |
Happen |
There’s money-lenders inside the temple |
That circus tiger’s gonna break my heart |
Something so wild turned into paper |
If you love me, then that’s your fault |
There’s money-lenders inside the temple |
This crystal city’s gonna fall apart |
When all their power turns into vapor |
If I miss you, well that’s my fault |
That’s my fault |
That’s my fault |
