julian cope - an elegant chaos lyrics
busy at home
i was happy for a while
but the joke is over
looking down
at the carefully laid out infamy
take a scythe, take a scythe
to the rotting core
of man-vegetation
now i sigh
at the cool cool attitude to ignorance
[chorus]
the look in your eyes
when you gave this to me
just put me on my guard
in this elegant chaos
i stand to one side
shouting, ”ha!”
was i forced into this?
or was it given to me?
it’s a nice idea –
as a gift
or as something to try for a while
70 years?
it’s neither one thing nor the other
my big fear
is to dig it at last
and have it taken away
[chorus]
it’s not a problem of secrecy
i take it in my stride
did i learn to breathe to be k!lled like this?
faces to the gl-ss
i see them televise my death
oh, and here comes the part
where i break down and cry
people i see
just remind me of mooing
like a cow on the gr-ss
and that’s not to say
that there’s anything wrong
with being a cow anyway
but people are people
with the added advantage
of the spoken word
we’re getting on fine
but i feel more of a man
when i get with the herd
