Píseň: Life Is Simple In The Moonlight

- Angles
Animals on TV singing about some pain that they once felt There's no one I disapprove of or root more for than myself I wanted to pretend that it was better, better, better on the phone Didn't want to tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous and alone So we talk about ourselves in hell To forget the love we never felt All the old jokes that work so well Universal truth was a moment's lie Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Get out of the way Got to get to climb your tree in the light of the living ghost I see She sees her father in that old man's eyes while secretly he stares at her thighs Animals on TV singing about some pain that they felt at some point I didn't want to tell you I was jealous, jealous, jealous What's the point? As I watch the velvet drapes appear And the door was closed for 40 years As we hide what we don't want to hear As we hide what's really in our ears He is coming from a part of hell Where lightning blue eyes don't go down well He can tell that we're oblivious It's addiction of routine as well Making fools out of the best of us Making robots of the rest of us Innocence itself in America today Is a crime just like Cornel West might say Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Don't try to stop us Get out of the way
