Penny Dreadful |
Forgive me if I’m out of order |
This new music has no soul |
It may be good for making money |
Sadly that is not my goal |
Integrity and honesty |
Are words that you don’t understand |
But you’re the best |
It says so in the Penny Dreadful in your hand |
I saw you in a magazine |
They’re calling you Messiah |
They must be living in a dream |
They couldn’t be more wrong |
«Oh, if we’d played this riff more punk |
Than may be we’d have had a million-seller» |
But this piper’s tune is not for sale |
I’m glad to say I’m not that kind of fella |
DJ’s, VJ’s, pimps and trollops |
Never mind music, this is bollocks |
I saw you in a magazine |
They’re calling you Messiah |
They must be living in a dream |
They couldn’t be more wrong |
Turn on! |
Tune up! |
Cash in! |
Sell out! |
Stand your ground behind the times |
And refuse to follow fashion |
Write your poetry with anger |
And then sing it with a passion |
Painted faces in a circus |
Images that spring to mind |
When I read my Penny Dreadful |
Filled with pictures of your kind |
I saw you in a magazine |
They’re calling you Messiah |
They must be living in a dream |
They couldn’t be more wrong |
Commercial suicide’s appealing |
After 10 years on this losing streak |
'cause I’d rather be called sour and bitter |
Than be deemed the flavour of the week |
I saw you in a magazine |
They’re calling you Messiah |
They must be living in a dream |
They couldn’t be more wrong |
(Extra, extra, read all about it!) |
I saw you in a magazine |
They’re calling you Messiah |
They must be living in a dream |
They couldn’t be more wrong |
