Talkshow Boy - To Be a Monk lyrics

Phantom rock'n'roller in a
Cryptic cold abyss
It was a year before the
Matrimony started to exist
And when they reinforced the system
Popping cysts and kissing victims
I was washing by the river to
Absolve me of my sins
Every rock'n'roller in a golden
Hall of fame
Recalls the moments that accumulated
Drawing wide acclaim
I was a young and faithful baby
Young at heart and semi-crazy
You kissed me on the cheek and
We decided to be friends
The monastary steps can overwhelm you from
The bottom of the shrine
The secrets that we harbour in this order
Seem to stand the test of time
I have a spiffy Motorola
And a robotic vocoder
If the princess doesn't mind me
I'm a rather splendid jester
Hat in hand
I saw the children
Make happy-go-lucky gestures
Knowing all the while that
Baby's rollercoaster never ends
Oh Kelly baby, Kelly baby
Where is Ozzy when you need him?
Alicia has left me for some new latino guy
Hey Christina, how you going?
Hello drew girl
How ya doin'?
Maybe Jennifer's a shoe-in if i
Try try try try try
The monastery steps can overwhelm you from
The bottom of the shrine
The secrets that we harbour in this order
Seem to stand the test of time
Light a candle, light another
We are brethren
We are brothers
If you leave us we will kill you
Say a prayer or say a million
Don the sacred cloaks of colour brown
And listen to the sound
In apprehension, feel the tension
Just make sure you do not mention
What you've learned inside and all
The herbs we've burned inside
Are holy arcane truths, the one
And only, death and love
In silence take my
Hand
And understand our violent plan
The way we decorate the land
With ribbons and with flowers
Watching wars from marble towers
Sacre bleu! sacre bleu! sacre bleu!
Sacre bleu bleu bleu!
