Happy Little Mazelmorfe

Stop, did you hear it
Drop? No you didn't
You were so busy
Always so busy
Now you ain't busy
Now you're just holding
Out, there's one sovereign
Down goes the humans
Such is the fable
Blood on the mantle
Fun, the round table
Founding of Mazel
They entertained
Rewarded you
Awarded worthless junk
But who would've thunk
The depth of which it sunk
Within a flick
You coddled it
The system - you believed in it
And now your soul's for sale
The mighty new republic
Of Mazel
For getting more than generations
You're cut off at the source
It's death or happy citizen
So be a happy little Mazelmorfe
So be a happy little Mazelmorfe
So be a happy little...

St. Vincent's Yard

For the substance of your flesh
Means evermore to me than mine is
Let it mesh before it perishes away
May the grandeur of your politics
Of your love give me sentence
To the promised land impending your embrace
I can wet your lips with tears
To let it quench your thirsty throat
You can swallow down my bitter pride
Exchanging either woe
It can throw you down and bury you
To consecrate the soil
That you've leased unto my body
For the spoils
Now do you see
Now do you see
The wife I've never known
Terminated by first term
Oh, don't you see
Well, don't you see
I remember you
Although you never were
And the batteries of spirit
Charge the heavens to resisting
The anointed and impetuous decrees
Of a couple of punk rockers
Separated by abortions
Allocated own dimensions in between
I will drink up of the monarch's plague
To starve you of his ill
With your quill upon my chest
Inscribe your ownership at will
Give me entrance to your rose bed
At St. Vincent's in Fitzroy
Share the sun as it descends
At our employ
Now do you see
Now do you see
The wife I've never known
Terminated by first term
Oh, don't you see
Well, don't you see
I remember you
Although you never were

My Unborn Child
01:57

Were you around
Self-deafened to the sound of all
Your babies yet unborn
Not my child, no, not mine
You may refrain of mind
Choose battles with your kind
But not my child, oh Lord
My unborn child
May he or she
Whatever it may come to be
Farewell way long from now
Freeze the hell on Earth somehow
They may refrain of mind
Choose battles with our kind
But not my child, oh Lord
My unborn child
Not my child
My unborn child

Until You Frown
02:04
|
|

To serenade you with the halo
That I ripped from out your glands
With rotten virgin fingers faint
Oh, what’s the use if they don’t mend?
And when you gnash your teeth
I'll catch your teeth in hand
Put together broken frowns
Until your smile overbears
To give you summer where its winter
Trace the steps from where you stand
To give the cold some heat to splinter
Where the prayer don’t seem to land
And when you gnash your teeth
I'll catch your teeth in hand
Put together broken frowns
Until your smile overbears
Until your smile overbears
And when you gnash your teeth
I'll catch your teeth in hand
Put together broken frowns
Until your smile overbears

I Cometh

With you near in sight, I cometh
Meek, dumb, deaf and blind, and stupid
With you near in sight, I cometh yet
I’ve bought all your books for reading
Looking for the word beseeching
Commoners to kingdom residents
I’ll give you my disease
Tattoo you ‘neath my eyelids
I will give you my, give you my disease
I see leaky cups around me
Overly concerned about me
Spilling out from underneath their sense
Tend to all the people shrouding
Not withstanding, not allowing
Will just to admit, but to pretend
I’ll give you my disease
Tattoo you ‘neath my eyelids
I will give you my, give you my disease
With you near in sight, I cometh
Meek, dumb, deaf and blind, and stupid
With you near in sight, I cometh yet
I’ve bought all your books for reading
Looking for the word beseeching
Commoners to kingdom residents
I’ll give you my disease
Of wandering the earth
With out a crown upon your king
And I have nothing to admit
Except the weeds that I called fruit
I will take them to the door
I will set them on the floor and tell
How I have little left
Except the fruit that I had planted
For they must be heaven-sent
To sprout from family room carpets
I have many o regrets
And they spit around the air
I cometh yet
I cometh yet
I cometh

The Cypress of Mazel
04:18

Why don’t you clarify your stance
And take a step way out of line?
Why not arrest what makes us bored?
Sit with me outside the war
And do the things we’d rather like
Why don’t you change your point of view
Perceive the way things really are?
Accept the heroes are at fault
Too optimistic to revolt
Build you anew from useless parts
Goodnight, goodnight
Good morning, my oldest friend
Goodbye, goodbye
Hello to you, I make amends
My enemy is not my friend
My enemy is not your friend
The cypress of Mazel is alight
Why don’t you prophesy the time
It took to get you out of bed?
For by the time you were afoot
You saw that all your pets were dead
Mummified next to some books
That you never read
Many philosophise a case
That evil’s louder than the good
So loud, the sound that goodness makes
Could never be understood
And so to listen is a waste
Pay no attention to the noise
Just try to focus on my voice
For don’t you know that you were right
All along, ‘cause doing wrong
Is never right if right is wrong
Goodnight, goodnight
Good morning, my oldest friend
Goodbye, goodbye
Hello to you, I make amends
My enemy is not my friend
My enemy is not your friend
The cypress of Mazel is alight
Goodnight, goodnight
Good morning, my oldest friend
Goodbye, goodbye
Hello to you, I make amends
My enemy is not my friend
My enemy is not your friend
The cypress of Mazel is alight

What do you see when you see me?
Drowning weak and trembling
By your hair
Smouldered steep by the galaxy complexion
Of your flesh
And I live to hide away
From your eyes
As they peer into
My filthy infestation
What do you see when you see me?
Volunteer me your poison tears
I evoke
You reveal the toyful reconstruction
Of all hope
Been consid'ring afterlife
In your smile
But it's twisted all 'round my
And piercing
What do you see when you see me?
But I know you love me
Of all vermin in the world
Though I may be the clay
Compacting you into the earth
To that I'll keep me warm
What do you see when you see me?

An Hero
04:01

You sought of the subtle burn
To wash away
Like seafoam all the voices in command
Wait not for another turn
That only keeps you
Grounded in a place where you can’t stand
When the weather chews your feet
And you are weary of the walk
Do not rinse and repeat
Of all of the petty words in talk
An hero
You learned how to change yourself
And how to rearrange
What you believe to fit the mold
You now have deranged yourself
And you have short-changed
All the forgiveness that you sold
When the weather chews your feet
And you are weary of the walk
Do not rinse and repeat
Of all of the petty words in talk
An hero
