Black music for bear traps
Lyrics
[BLACK MUSIC FOR BEAR TRAPS:]
Our hearts were asleep by the crime light assassin
no, I never ever never met a Czech I liked
put my powdered wig on and you whispered something
and like a sovereign of the chemicals, you were right.
shivers like gossip, pale like a virtue
sleeping on a bed of roses tonight
heal the purple heart, for the eels in the dark
or call the cosmopolitan, she’ll know what to do
cause I live in the city of angels
I live in the city of angels
I live in the city of angels
I’m a devil
the four were blushing, gushing like geysers
well I never ever never met a tramp I liked
at the gypsy moth banquet, you’re epitomizing
behind the veracose veil, they’ll feel you like braille
(as the barium sun sets salvation city
our barnacle scarlet chimes to life
stately sirens of Iodine now hear the synapse kiss of decadence)
widowmaker wore our mother’s skin,
the sun has sold us out again
siamese fink, worn like mink
can’t you sleep with red tide glaring?
here’s to the violent four
CONTROL CONTRIVE CONTRACT CONSTRICT
hungry again, maiden head?
combing the salt off of their ruined disguises
conjoined a new prey in the city of muses
Yet I am the plague of the modern age
just drowning in the salt of the earth…
