Destroyer - Rereading the Marble Faun lyrics
[Destroyer - Rereading the Marble Faun lyrics]
The lecture halls we filled in
The Fall fell through
The pedagogue in me asked
"What have you read lately?"
A pleasantry the blonde in you responded to
You won't go into the half of it
So I'm going to nitpick
The exegesis comes quick to
Whoever's less sorry now
I've forgotten you've a right to be rotten
With the killer-instincts of an old
Flame who's slain you
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
Disgusted by the rust on a
Voice that you never use
How could you expect your Jesuit
Sect to play here?
The fake book dates back to Iberia
You won't go into the half of it
So I'm going to nitpick
The exegesis comes quick to
Whoever's less sorry now
I've forgotten you've a right to be rotten
With the killer-instincts of an old
Flame who's slain you
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
What will you burn for warmth?
Will you keep a husband this season?
Who could take you on?
Itinerant as the day is long
You won't go into the half of it
So I'm going to nitpick
The exegesis comes quick to
Whoever's less sorry now
I've forgotten you've a right to be rotten
With the killer-instincts of an old
Flame who's slain you
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
The Fall fell through
The pedagogue in me asked
"What have you read lately?"
A pleasantry the blonde in you responded to
You won't go into the half of it
So I'm going to nitpick
The exegesis comes quick to
Whoever's less sorry now
I've forgotten you've a right to be rotten
With the killer-instincts of an old
Flame who's slain you
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
Disgusted by the rust on a
Voice that you never use
How could you expect your Jesuit
Sect to play here?
The fake book dates back to Iberia
You won't go into the half of it
So I'm going to nitpick
The exegesis comes quick to

Itinerant as the day is long
You won't go into the half of it

I just finished the book
And some of it's true
I just finished the book
And some of it's true
