lyrics

See me treasure hunting: never touch the ground.
Must be something: debility’s profound.
See me treasure hunting: lies are all around.
Must be something: deliberately profound, lies all around.
I won’t accept responsibility, diminished sorts or otherwise;
perhaps they’ll see it as a flaw in me: no doubts on that score or surprise.
It’s fine, I know: they’ll wipe my arse for me;
I really am a ruthless sod, my claw-like toes and sense of entropy my protestation and my job.
In the waiting room, in the taxi-queue, in the babble of the bank taking up the time, pointing out the place and the cretins that we thank.
In the council rooms, in the avenues, in the corner of the house making up the lines from a poker face with the presence of a louse.
Chorus: See me necking out with my matchstick frown, circus face hanging upside-down, eyes on stalks, arms turned brown, cardboard town.
See me treasure hunting: never touch the ground.
Must be something: debility’s profound.
See me treasure hunting: lies are all around.
Must be something profound.
Lies all around.
There’s no regret inside this malady;
the signs and sinners fill the road, the precious lot outside society: prescriptive comments overload.
