lyrics

he winced from his snuff box and sneered as he wagged his tassle he said how'd a small queen
get to live in such a big castle he'd never have guessed I was bored with such trivial hastles I'm used to dogs barking and whining from privledged assholes but as the night closed in I felt somehow drunker I needed more action than playing the angry debunker the heart is a cave that will swallow a careless spelunker the prince and the punker your honor I sit here to throw up my hands and surrender it's clear from the looks that I get you expect an offender societies darlings are waivered from one or two benders the rest of the dead boys can grind like a child in a blender but as the night closed in I felt somehow drunker I needed more action than playing the angry debunker the heart is a cave that will swallow a careless spelunker the prince and the punker I've listened to you now listen to me you haircuts always wanna say what's best for me a patriot's a pustule of conformity you can't expect a shit house to be odor free I recognise the dungeon of your dull decree your gutter is the goal you have forseen for me your morals can't exceed your shit economy but even in the darkest hour there's hope for me cause no eye is so watchful that I can't be free no weapon is so strong the trigger hand can't bleed
no mouth is ever full when all you eat is greed and pompous politicians live a shallow creed a liar's never safe when there's a fire to feed the fire never burns too deep to scortch the seed no duty's any stronger than a coward's deed you can't expect a forest when your heart's a weed I've listened long enough to brainless litanies
