Spend our money on distractions
To displace our emotions
Exhaust sleeps with ambition
In overpriced accommodation
With telephone and bills
Everybody s shouting
And all I feel is dirty
Everything s distorted
By rays of different waves
To make it all look normal
To make it feel ok

I know you really want me
But you can t have me
I think I ll sit in this window
I think I ll tease you
I think I ll please me
Something s you ll never know
Like what s at the end of my black rainbow

You know we ve been cabled in
With intellectual morphine
We want to be outrageous
But we don t even know it
Only victory s impressive
The vanquished are neglected
Honesty s rejected
All I fell is dirty
All I feel s complicit
Now I m not playing for a gallery
Or some index linked academy
We get all judgmental

I know you really want me
But you can t have me
I think I ll sit in this window
I think I ll tease you
I think I ll please me
Something s you ll never know
Like what s at the end of my black rainbow
Words best left unexplained
Places you ll never go
Like all the way to the end of my black rainbow
