Momus - Lute Score lyrics

You locked me in the bathroom long ago
You bloody bastard
But sadness never floods a
House where wine flows, i'm here playing

Lute Score, the video game where you hit
The high score by composing lute Scores
And shooting off the pop up panda's head
Shooting off the pop up panda's head

When the monster attacked the city everyone
Was just too busy making money
To give a shit, some fled
Most kept on doing what they were doing

In Samarkand Uzbekistan the
Vietnamese chiropodist
Extracted a glass of clear green
Tea from his samovar
Extracted green tea from his samovar

A ghost tended two moss
Gardens, one marshmallow, one ectoplasm
Something to do with the free bamboo
Something to do with the snow

Green plants
Folk and fairy tales from German Africa
Swamp leg, an inner lightbulb
Tragedy on stilts
An inner lightbulb, tragedy on stilts

Pins and needles, shoes and
Stockings, aches and pains, and vermin
Panthers waging war on cranes and storks

A battered
Bandaged head climbs up an uphill landscape
A 200 foot wingspan black butterfly in space
200 foot black butterfly in space

An eager red-eyed dog licks red raw
Meat from an open ash can
Lamps, chairs, books, lightbulbs
Cherries from a knife
A Decca-Deram furbelow
Master of the bungalow
Writing with the white ink
The white ink of life

Lute Score, the video game where you hit
The high score by composing lute Scores
And shooting off the pop up panda's head
Shooting off the pop up panda's head
