Lyrics for It's a Curse

It's a curse Well thy forsooth Who is that interesting hack over there? By Gad, verily Cracked curse Disliked Burdened It's a curse And am not unguilty of using it "You, your tone is... You tone of everybody" Trying to bolt out of Trying to get over Operation mind fuck "I do not like your tone. It has ephemeral whinging* aspects." It's a curse. I am not unguilty of using it. Waiting for you to f... Trying to get out of Tryna get out of Waiting They are waiting for you, bitterly, for you to fall over. It's a curse. Down their long egg breath Cheap shaving lotion days Their sandwiches stashed under their side seats Their froglike chins ready to burst I tell you, it's a curse, it's a burden Trying to get over bargain vampires In shops I tell you it's a curse "You, you tone is..." Trying to get out of It's a curse Shafted over It's a curse It's a burden That's burden Operation Mind-Fuck Look back bores Bach and Wagner All you really need is a good Schwartz It's a curse Balti and Vimto and Spangles** Were always crap, Regardless of the look back bores. It's a curse. Shafted over. Trying to bolt out of. Waiting for you. It's a curse.
