| Owen Pallett – Do You Love? Lyrics | 19 years ago |
|
It is about how someone cannot change themselves, using transmogrification as a metaphor. "There are things I cannot do I cannot not not turn a skinny little shit Into a winsome Brit who spent his youth in honest pleasure For all my wily ways I cannot not not turn back into the boy It's a tearful day when a boy must learn his limitations" I believe the rest is talking about cosmetic surgery or just a crude way of altering things and how that can change things with "magic" "Take a look at this brochure: Inject, inject, strip away, peel away The scars of self abuse with a couple of hours in a private clinic What have I left in life? The Knife! the Knife! this knife! this knife! Every inch, every inch of me will come to know its magic!" |
