Manic Street Preachers - The Convalescent lyrics
[Manic Street Preachers - The Convalescent lyrics]
My bedroom wall recalls what's in my head
A collage constructed and constantly fed
Goya mixes Picasso but it's hardly Spain
Look through the window
Pissing down with rain
Lovely labradors outnumber musicians
Bonnie and Clyde have made
Their good intentions
Pity poor Payne Stewart in a death bubble
But what a swing and so much bottle
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
Kleenex kitchen towels and Teletext TV
My favourite inventions of
The twentieth century
Haile Gebrselassie looks so sweet and young
Eyes quickly shift to Jack Kevorkian
Uneven and tidal all with exit policies
Followed by anti ballistic migraines
And Brian Warner has a tasty little ass
Scared of cash machines and the Mardi Gras
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
Alberto Juantorena, unique in his field
These are the things that that make you feel
Klaus Kinski with love of Werner Herzog
Scream until the war is over
Scream until the war is over
Srebrenica cousin of Treblinka
Scream until the war is over war is over
And Dante's Inferno slides into dysmorphia
So scream until the war is over
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
So I rehabilitate and get my body straight
Because nothing fit's like it used to fit
A collage constructed and constantly fed
Goya mixes Picasso but it's hardly Spain
Look through the window
Pissing down with rain
Lovely labradors outnumber musicians
Bonnie and Clyde have made
Their good intentions
Pity poor Payne Stewart in a death bubble
But what a swing and so much bottle
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
Kleenex kitchen towels and Teletext TV
My favourite inventions of
The twentieth century
Haile Gebrselassie looks so sweet and young
Eyes quickly shift to Jack Kevorkian
Uneven and tidal all with exit policies
Followed by anti ballistic migraines
And Brian Warner has a tasty little ass
Scared of cash machines and the Mardi Gras
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
Alberto Juantorena, unique in his field
These are the things that that make you feel
Klaus Kinski with love of Werner Herzog
Scream until the war is over
Scream until the war is over
Srebrenica cousin of Treblinka
Scream until the war is over war is over
And Dante's Inferno slides into dysmorphia
So scream until the war is over
So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Because DNA means does not accept
So I rehabilitate and get my body straight
Because nothing fit's like it used to fit
