It's a Curse Songtext

von The Fall

It's a curse
Well thy forsooth
Who is that interesting hack over there?
By Gad, verily
Cracked curse
Disliked
Burdened
It's a curse
And am not unguilty of using it

"You, your tone is...
You tone of everybody"

Trying to bolt out of
Trying to get over
Operation mind fuck

"I do not like your tone.
It has ephemeral whinging* aspects."

It's a curse. I am not unguilty of using it.

Waiting for you to f...
Trying to get out of
Tryna get out of
Waiting
They are waiting for you, bitterly, for you to fall over.
It's a curse.

Down their long egg breath
Cheap shaving lotion days
Their sandwiches stashed under their side seats
Their froglike chins ready to burst
I tell you, it's a curse, it's a burden
Trying to get over bargain vampires
In shops
I tell you it's a curse

"You, you tone is..."
Trying to get out of
It's a curse
Shafted over
It's a curse
It's a burden
That's burden
Operation Mind-Fuck

Look back bores
Bach and Wagner
All you really need is a good Schwartz
It's a curse
Balti and Vimto and Spangles**
Were always crap,
Regardless of the look back bores.

It's a curse.
Shafted over.
Trying to bolt out of.
Waiting for you.
It's a curse.
