II Future Fantastico
Careful with that gun, it's old but it has friends The windows are too steep and the hallway never ends The pictures are of devils here, the curtains are too sharp The bulbs refuse to function and it's dangerous in the dark The neighbors guard positions, the advantage is all theirs And do not even think of trying to navigate the stairs The leaky roof will drown you if you ever get to sleep The doors wont lock the stove wont light The furniture is cheap
The fire escapes they beckon but don't trust them for a second The street's a blind one anyway, with it you cannot reckon You could fly from the roof and hope the tree will catch you true But I've heard it's rotten anyway, it's branches have turned blue There's rats up in the garret and there's snakes down underneath Where once the kitchen knife sat just sits now an empty sheath The ministry's forgotten you, the embassy's no good They got problems of their own their couldn't help you if they would Miniature ambitions that's the way to take this on Try and find a lighter, put a warm coat on Wrap yourself in blankets and try to ride it out Nobody's certain anyway what this one's all about Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
It's said it's cos they failed but maybe it was you Maybe you forgot to look aside instead of true Maybe you were arrogant and you tried to seek out fame Or maybe it's the opposite and you didn't win the game Refused to play it out of spite and now look you are locked inside And everybody's angry no one calls you now it doesn't really matter And you can't blame the blizzard, that situation's old It's either fucking hot or it is freezing fucking cold There's people man they got it right but they were all to few And even were it everyone what is there we could do You cannot feed the hungry just because they got it right You cannot hide a massacre just because it's night
There's many now will tell you that progress is to blame But without a little progress the whole thing would be a shame So is this just a funeral then, a celebration then the end Some vacuous new renderings of things we like if we pretend If we paint it prettily it might seem less bezerk Actually it's just a pity that gun doesn't work
