[00:43.44]
[00:45.44] Some say you're trouble, boy
[00:47.38] Just because you like to destroy
[00:49.54] All the things that bring the idiots joy
[00:51.45] Well, what's wrong with a little destruction?
[00:53.85] And the Kunst won't talk to you
[00:55.93] Because you kissed St Rollox Adieu
[00:57.99] Because you robbed a supermarket or two
[00:59.83] Well, who gives a damn about the prophets of Tesco?
[01:02.07]
[01:02.51] Did I see you in a limousine
[01:04.22] Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
[01:06.11] Turn the rich into wine
[01:07.25] Walk on the mean
[01:08.27] That the fallen are the virtuous among us
[01:12.27] Walk among us
[01:14.24] Never judge us
[01:16.20] Yeah we're all...
[01:17.13] Up now and get 'em, boy
[01:19.26] Up now and get 'em, boy
[01:20.96] Drink to the devil and death at the doctors
[01:23.32]
[01:23.70] Did I see you in a limousine
[01:25.35] Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
[01:27.82] Five thousand users fed today
[01:31.10] As you feed us
[01:33.32] Won't you lead us
[01:35.47] To be blessed
[01:36.58]
[01:44.75] So we stole and drank Champagne
[01:46.50] On the seventh seal you said you never feel pain
[01:48.55] "I never feel pain, won't you hit me again?"
[01:50.76] "I need a bit of black and blue to be a rotation"
[01:52.98]
[01:53.34] In my blood I feel the bubbles burst
[01:54.91] There was a flash of fist, an eyebrow burst
[01:57.01] You've a lazy laugh and a red white shirt
[01:59.32] I fell to the floor fainting at the sight of blood
[02:01.76] Did I see you in a limousine
[02:03.46] Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
[02:05.26] Turn the rich into wine
[02:06.61] Walk on the mean
[02:07.40] Be they Magdalene or virgin you've already been
[02:09.41] You've already been and we've already seen
[02:11.52] That the fallen are the virtuous among us
[02:15.55] Walk among us
[02:17.72] Never judge us to be blessed
[02:21.15]
[02:33.46] So I'm sorry if I ever resisted
[02:35.37] I never had a doubt you ever existed
[02:37.47] I only have a problem when people insist on
[02:39.67] Taking their hate and placing it on your name
[02:42.08] Some say you're trouble, boy
[02:43.97] Just because you like to destroy
[02:45.81] You are the word, the word is 'destroy'
[02:47.97] I break this bottle and think of you fondly
[02:50.15]
[02:50.56] Did I see you in a limousine
[02:52.21] Flinging out the fish and the unleavened
[02:54.14] To the whore in a hostel
[02:55.45] Or the scum of a scheme
[02:56.44] Turn the rich into wine
[02:57.50] Walk on the mean
[02:58.33] It's not a jag in the arm
[02:59.47] It's a nail in the beam
[03:00.44] On this barren Earth
[03:01.50] You scatter your seed
[03:02.53] Be they Magdalene or virgin
[03:03.85] You've already been
[03:04.74] Yeah, you've already been
[03:05.93] We've already seen
[03:06.71]
[03:23.86] You've already been
[03:24.74] We've already seen
[03:25.55] That the fallen are the virtuous among us
[03:29.70] Walk among us
[03:31.58] If you judge us
[03:33.67] We're all damned
[03:36.41]
[03:37.32]
