tom smith (filk) - rich fantasy lives lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
that waitress at pete’s who took so long to seat you
and left you to stand in the doorway
with her stringy red hair and her thousand+yard stare
in her mind, she’s the princess of norway

[verse 2]
as she takes down your order, she’s crossing the fjord, her
white stallion spits foam like a madman
many vikings have died trying to take her as bride
but her heart is reserved for a bad man

[chorus]
rich fantasy lives
somehow she survives in a world she contrives
inhibited husbands and frustrated wives
lead rich fantasy livеs

[verse 3]
that guy from it who resurrects your pc
with a boredom hе barely suppresses
though he rarely converses, he has more universes
in his head than you’ve got addresses

[verse 4]
he wargames through weekends, leads armies and legions
he doesn’t care how well you putted
he’s browsing reality’s infinite palette, he’s
seen yours, and yours doesn’t cut it
[chorus]
rich fantasy lives
he quietly thrives in a world he contrives
techno+drone insects in cubicle hives
lead rich fantasy lives

[bridge]
we’re piling up fears, but we’re out of frontiers
some need to escape, but there’s nowhere
can’t go to the moon, at least any time soon
but an inner+sp+ce trip costs you no fare

so don’t be unkind to a wandering mind
just say it again if we missed it
some whispering poem was calling us home
to a place we know never existed

[chorus]
rich fantasy lives
our peace+bonded knives and our hypersp+ce drives
until that steam engine to hogwarts arrives
we have rich fantasy lives

[chorus]
rich fantasy lives
our quests and our tribes and our babylon fives
until something better than this world arrives
we’ll lead rich fantasy lives
rich fantasy lives
