lyrics

Incompletely tropical
With a twist of something devilish
Sour crystals crackle quietly
Your new haircut fixes sharpening eyes upon your back

Cut to the chase
Why did you come out to the place
Wipe away the smirk on your face
Hushing looks are firing around the hall
You are suspended in sound
Heels clicking on the surrounds
Anchors anchor you to the ground
Graciously, the floor begins to spin your round and round

Company you've no respect for
Waggling your tongue
Smashing into conversations
Wrecking them for fun
But in the background
Somebody you once appealed to
Vanishes from sight
Riding on these Summer punches
Spiralling all night

Far from Pandaemonium
And the glow of awful furnaces
We recline in pastures mown for us
Shrewdly flower-clad and evergreen

This is the life
Danger doesn't dwell in the light
Fabulous designs for delight
Why would you consider for a second
How we came to be here as guests?
Easily appalled and impressed
How exactly would you suggest
People spend their time
If not indulgently without regret?

Confidence in sheer abandon
Fearless for a while
Screen away all kinds of problems
Shred the things in style
But in the background
Somebody who once betrayed you
Watches with a smile
Riding on these Summer punches
Swimming in denial

Laughing at you, laughing at you now
Laughing at you, they're laughing at you now
