| The weather is changing
|
| Dialogue is stagey
|
| But the intent, the intent is pure
|
| We speak of purity, haircuts an atrocity:
|
| A reminder that every scene’s a bore
|
| You can wave the red flag
|
| Decorate your handbag
|
| But even the dead think consistency’s a chore
|
| My favorite feelings are joy and contempt
|
| In you, in you I’ve met my match
|
| My strongest feelings are joy and contempt
|
| In you, in you I’ve met my match
|
| The day is long, the day is hard
|
| It is an uncertain word we speak ‘til we’re slow dancing to this bitter earth
|
| We’re slow dancing to this bitter earth
|
| Heart-sleeved charmers
|
| Best not to believe
|
| What’s convenient is rarely good
|
| You can hate how the roads are paved
|
| Eventually you live in the state
|
| Apolitical, baby;
|
| My heart
|
| In its fashion
|
| Is true
|
| My strongest feelings are joy and contempt
|
| In you, in you I’ve met my match
|
| We’re slow dancing to this bitter earth
|
| My strongest feelings are joy and contempt
|
| In you, in you I’ve met my match
|
| We’re slow dancing to this bitter earth |
