The lyrics here are off sometimes in important places and won't correct when I try to edit them, so:
This song's made up, made second rate
Cosmetic music, powderpuff
Pop tunes, false rhymes, all lightweight bluffs
Secondhand ideas, no soul, no hate
Wasn't meant to be
Beyond complacency
The nightmares right away
When you refuse to lay
Oh go and read a book
It's so much more worthwhile
Being a song-smith crook
Study depth in style
Depth in style
This language used is all worn out
A walking corpse it won't play dead
Disease dragged on from bed to bed
Paid for your twist, paid for shout
Wasn't meant to be
Beyond complacency
Open your eyes and see
That lie is not for we
Raise a rope, a knife
Cut it out - the lie
I don't want to decay
Take the shortcut way
Oh go and read a book
It's so much more worthwhile
Being a songsmith crook
Study depth in style
Study depth in style
Heard you calling through the drumbeat
Answer with sticks and bones
Scream, shout, dance around the campfire
You can hear the question, can you feel the reply?
Heard you calling through the drumbeat
Heard you calling through the drumbeat
Can you hear the question, feel the reply?
Can you hear the question, feel the reply?
Hymn from a village
The hymn from a village
