So Civilized

hey i’m a lucky man
went to sleep with an angel
woke up with a devil in my head
must have been the drink
hurts like a bitch
but there are no prizes for good behavior
what a great idea
should have thought of it myself
back up the pornography
sneak into the pyramids
burn it down for the gods
and they’ll show us how to fly
we could be so civilized
yeah genius who doesn’t love to travel?
saw a million places
smiled at everyone
and no one even told me I was face down in the mud

looks familiar
just like we always wanted
squint and you can see it
singing from the top of every tree
honey dripping from the leaves
cherries ripe for picking
oh sunny day
but such nasty weather
why act so defeated?
came all this way and now you’re leaving?
super weird...
what the body needs won’t need tomorrow
dancing down the canyon
sucking out the marrow
trading high fives down the line
banging chicks on the waterside
oh sunny day
there there
you think we’ve all gone crazy
happens every time
does it itch or does it crawl?
does it fall right off the bone or merely scatter?
where has the feeling gone?
if you’re not with us now you’ll go home empty-handed
it’s time
sure it’s tempting
might even be the day to stand up and lick the finish
no one gets to touch it
it's all yours

Father Octopus recommends:
This is the only cover album worth a damn. Industrial tunes by Izzy, the studio genius behind Peace & Love. I played some guitar on this.
