lyrics

Animal Swoon

A prism of your life before
before this stupid endless war
against an enemy that just gives and gives
gives and gives and gives and gives
new life, new life, new life, new life
something odd in the backyard
now it’s gone it’s just shard
of a former body being
of a former way of seeing
friends and fire disagreeing
mediocre thoughts are freeing
cannon fodder, extra thin
starved of context
starved of sin
fire it at your diplomats
it’ll barely shift their hats
youth is moral, age is meat
now it will be nice and neat
youth is meat and age beset
by forever — life to get
turn your compass to the moon
cold and dusty, animal swoon
animal friendly, animal strikes
at the surface, all you like
all you’ve clicked on, all you’ve clicked on...
all you’ve clicked on, all that crap
is it ugly? ignore that
press a button, button fat
lookout boy, what kind of life is that?
pages will be meted out
according to the level of engagement
we’ll be meeting out, according to the level of... promote your engagement
engage your promoters
you are now the promoters
you are now the engagement
you are now the engagers
you are now the engaging
you are now the promotion
you are now the promotion.
