Intro
C# G# x2
C#
Are we institutionalised
G#
by the demands of today?
C#
In our regalia
G#
are we ok?
Fm
Because the flash, of a blade
is one less getting paid
G#
there in the line
Fm
And the ice, and gold
is just a double code...
G#
It's a paradigm
For every little thing
C# (distorsion guitar here)
that fashion gives you
G#
Yeah
C# G#
C#
So the Puritan on a morning
G#
said happy sad melody
C#
I'm waltzing on an amazing pulse
G#
in a pornographic sea
Fm
Where the absent blade
is one less in parade
G#
To throw overboard
Fm
And the ice, and gold
it's just a double code
G#
It's a metaphor
For every little thing
C# (distorsion guitar again) G#
that fashion gives you Yeah
A#m G#
C#
I'm Falling into something
G#
that plays upon the metronome, in your heart
C#
It's smoke and it's mirrors
G#
until the auto cue starts
Fm
Then the dry ice comes
and we start sucking our
G#
thumbs on the TV
Fm
And the joy of people
G#
spirited away so merrily
is part of every little thing
C# (dist. guitar) G#
that fashion gives you Yeah
C# G#
