peter hammill - the jargon king [the margin] lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he prescribes the subject
he proscribes outsiders
his terms have a golden ring
he tabulates the lexicon
vocabulary minimised

[chorus]
bow down to the jargon king

[guitar solo]
[verse 2]
all questions become so simple
if we eat the inane answer
if we all agree to ju+ju speak
we fit into the formula
we all without exception
approve the rule

[bridge]
we don’t understand
he must be clever
hе must be clever
hе must be right
he must be right
we don’t understand

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
closed the ranks and barricades
imposed the secret language
complexity all catch+phrased
word+drugged any anguish
pigeon+holed allusions
shut the vault behind us
it’s an obvious conclusion
we’ll be the chattels of his highness
[chorus]
oh bow down to the jargon king
and his minion code+words

[outro]
oh here comes the reign…
