lyrics

Lyrics by Mathieu Lacombe

Look a me, listen to me I've got some words for you
I'll say them once, so listen well but be warned they are taboo
So stretch your ears, pull them out far and wide until they hurt
Now decipher this message, here's a hint it's not about the church

Look at my lips, look how they move can you make out the words?
From within, out with a grin they run around like bastards
They'll hit you hard and make you think on all you thought you knew
You'll see it for what it really is once revealed its such a breakthrough

I'm just warming up my vocal chords I'll tell you soon, be patient
it's worth the wait to let me dictate 'cause these words are fuckin' brilliant
but be forewarned for many fools will try to censor you
they're simply afraid, "but why?", because they'll know you know the truth

Well I know it's been two minutes and still no wisdom did you hear
and you've listened all so patiently but we've run out of time I fear
but these poised words, they hold the power to save a broken soul
so come on out to our next show, there our message shall be told!
