An Elegant Chaos Lyrics

Cover art for An Elegant Chaos lyrics by Julian Cope

Its about life isn't it? This Elegant Chaos = Life. He is talking to God, he wants know if his life is "a gift Or as something to try for a while" But then we only get our biblical 3 score and 10. "70 years?" He worries he'll only "get it" when he is close to the End. He is wary of God's motives. He is not convinced by The Spectacle, but decides to stop questioning stuff and participate in it anyway.
