The Monster's Ride

from Lie​/​ability by Humpty Dumpty

/

lyrics

Their deep sighs
Luring by the larches
Like they were
Invulnerable

When you will stare
Get your fair share
They won’t blame me
You deserve it
Wayward old guy
They’ll forbid my moans

Mumbling on my rights denied
I took my chance to give this ride

First I woke up
Then I broke it
And all what goes around Then I made it
it comes around No mistake’s been done

Jake and Gill went up the hill
Same torn jeans as Sue and Bill
Jake and Gill do not exist
Afterglow in a sick mist
Jake and Gill and Sue and Bill
Nothing more than clammy limbs
Now putrified

Hurry up, be on time
Come accept the monster’s ride
What’s the use of staying alive?
Sing along the monster’s rhyme
Finally you will find
What’s inside the monster’s mind
The monster’s mind
Straight away, turn right, dig the soil
They’re underground
Stay away, out of sight, move on
The monster hides
Blood flow, fervent vibes, no more
The monster lies
Water is lit by fire, upside down
The wood, the sky
Elusive gaze, I prepare, without a frown
Another round
Blond Sue or dusky Gill, toss a coin
Amusing time
Cut a slice of pinky flesh to enjoy
With cold steel knives
Don’t you know the reason why I sang this song
The monster’s aim
Was to proof all in all that you were wrong
The monster’s right
