Lyrics Paolo Rumi - Momus

Paolo Rumi

I am a theme park
Paolo Rumi
Here are my gates
Come into me
I’m a dream park
Here in the rain
Filling the waves
Troubling space
With my SOS
Down the parade
Over the sea
Come follow me
I’m a theme park
I’m a DJ
All through the night
Trying to be dumb
Asserting the right to be different
From everyone else
Seeking someone
To join me so we can be
Different
In the same way
Paolo Rumi
The minotaur guy
The labyrinth guide
On the mother of rides
I’m a theme park
Come step inside
Come be my bride
Frankenstein’s just a working class guy
In the kitsch world of pop
His salvation
I am a dream park
I ride a white swan
On a black pond
On and on
Through the hot nights
Towards cities of papier mache
I’m a theme park
The bride was a man
The family planned
The three of us there in the ghost house
We’re the deviant ones
The long way we’ve come
The burdens we’ve borne
Will one day be etched on our face
But not yet -- we’re still young
Too young to be crushed by the weight
Of your difference from us
I’m a poem
J. Alfred Prufrock
Sinking my teeth in the peach
I am a theme park
Advertising
Learning to love the consumer society
I am a DJ
Filling the waves
Troubling space
With my SOS
I’m a DJ
From the revolution
Advertising
Emotional states
Trying to discover intelligent life upon earth someplace
(Trying to be dumb, trying to be bright)
I’m a DJ
All through the night
Trying to be dumb
Trying to be different from everyone else
Seeking someone to join me
So we can be different the same way
A theme park
You have no choice
Here are my gates
Discover my voice…
