Lyrics Bernard Fanning

Bernard Fanning

Here Comes The Sadist

Here comes the sadist on his afternoon stroll

Trying to gather information

Like a holy roller trying to save my soul

From perpetual damnation

Now the andalusian ladies wave and blink and smile

While papa goes to work and takes a bit on the side

Just like nothing ever happened

They're all manicured up within an inch of their lives

All this talk about contagion

But the sadist will need saving

When the curtain comes down

Oh the workers march in tandem down the hungry mile

Trying to makes the sadists listen

Given voice to all the problems of the rank and file

But he thinks it's all a fiction

There's reason why some people live their life on their knees

So the money lending jackals can go on as they please

Just like nothing ever happened

Privatise the profits - socialise the disease

All this talk about contagion

But the sadist will need saving

When the curtain comes down

Here comes the sadist on his afternoon stroll

Like a holy roller trying to save my soul

Holy rolling

Here comes the sadist on his afternoon stroll

Holy rolling
