[00:00.74] The Modern Leper - Frightened Rabbit
[00:01.82]
[00:15.30] A cripple walks amongst you
[00:16.75] All you tired human beings
[00:19.52]
[00:22.81] He's got all the things a cripple has not
[00:24.90] Two working arms and legs
[00:27.23]
[00:30.80] Vital parts fall from his system
[00:32.48] And dissolve in Scottish rain
[00:34.84]
[00:38.52] Vitally he doesn't miss them
[00:40.41] He's too f**ked up to care
[00:42.62]
[00:45.91] Is that you in front of me
[00:47.93]
[00:49.11] Coming back for even more of exactly the same
[00:52.31]
[00:52.92] You must be a masochist
[00:55.96]
[00:56.67] You love a modern leper on his last leg
[00:59.97]
[01:00.56] On his last leg
[01:01.91]
[01:17.16] I've crippled your heart a hundred times
[01:19.00] And still can't work out why
[01:21.35]
[01:24.88] See I've got this disease I can't shake
[01:27.19] And I'm just rattling through life
[01:29.56]
[01:32.77] Oh this is how we do things now
[01:34.53] And this is how the modern stay scared
[01:37.48]
[01:40.47] So I cut out all the good stuff
[01:42.13] Yeah I cut of my foot to spite my leg
[01:46.94]
[01:48.21] Is that you in front of me
[01:50.43]
[01:51.70] Coming back for even more of exactly the same
[01:54.84]
[01:55.47] You must be a masochist
[01:58.67]
[01:59.63] To love a modern leper on his last leg
[02:03.01]
[02:03.62] I am ill but I'm not dead
[02:06.68]
[02:07.71] And I don't know which of those I'd prefer
[02:11.17]
[02:11.74] Because that limb which I have lost
[02:14.93]
[02:15.84] I was it the only thing holding me up
[02:19.28]
[02:19.80] Holding me up
[02:21.36]
[02:32.82] I'm lying on the ground now
[02:34.65] And you walk in through the only door
[02:37.32]
[02:39.13] I have lost my eyesight like I said I would
[02:41.84] But I still know
[02:45.50]
[02:46.47] The that is you in front of me
[02:49.05]
[02:49.76] And you are back for even more of exactly the same
[02:53.80] Well are you a masochist
[02:57.22]
[02:57.86] You love a modern leper on his last leg
[03:01.30]
[03:01.94] You're not ill and I'm not dead
[03:05.19]
[03:06.02] Doesn't that make us the perfect pair
[03:09.74] Should sit with me
[03:10.90]
[03:11.98] Start again
[03:13.04]
[03:13.86] And you can tell me all about what you did today
[03:17.75] What you did today
