Lyrics Future of the Left

Future of the Left

French Lessons

They say the price of love is a black hole

Where your friends were

Where your social life sits

Pulled into a chasm of family engagements

And trips to the garden centre

That is true enough if you choose it

Or it chooses you, I forget which

You could marry yourself to an orphan girl

And over compensate on her birthday

Well I don't need koi carp swimming around my feet

And auburn haired children blocking my path

As I run to the disabled bathroom

Topping off a 12 hour drinking spree

Well I don't need koi carp swimming around my feet

And auburn haired children blocking my path

As I run to the disabled bathroom

Topping off a 12 hour drinking spree

Well they say the price of love is a lot of things

They say a lot if you give them the chance

They will say it all and loudly

Sometimes they will say it more than once

I'm reading you like a pamphlet

That I picked up from an idiot

On a unicycle in the town square

He is sad now, he was sadder then

I am reading you like a pamphlet

That I picked up from an idiot

On a unicycle in the town square

He is sad now, he was sadder then

Now I'm reading you by a candle side

And it breaks my heart in two

You can kid yourself that your dreams amount to more than counting backwards from four

It's a dangerous thing

Ambrosia

Just buy the cream

Apply it to the scar and wait for anything else

Way down in the plastics

Way down in the plugs

Way down in the carpet

A metaphor needs a better home

Way down in the plastics

Way down in the plugs

Way down in the carpet

A metaphor needs a better home

A rich kid stole the ball

The rich kid stole the ball

The rich kid stole the ball

The rich kid stole the ball
