Marzipan

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Williamsburg early 20's Your old Mercedes sedan It was a fever dream starring marzipan In the Polish part of town They were all sort of clowns you lived with I struggled to love your bland delight [Chorus] Hank Williams and folk music had sort of changed me Well I threw me in to the deep end And to be honest it felt like Rock and roll was gone Like I had moved on [Verse 2] To Roy Acuff and Chet Atkin's sacred arboretum It was a rock and roll crematorium And jazz was there too In fact jazz had been there all along [Verse 3] I knew these no-playing motherfuckеrs were not brothers of minе Nor were they sisters divine No they were chat-room, AOL'ing, truffle-shaving, eBay-scamming, freaks With gear on the brain I know it sounds insane But these people got paid to play [Verse 4] I'm riding around wearing a frown In a tripped up spaced out world Well life underground Well that's no longer found In a post-modern infinitely lame-er world [Chorus] New England's shit Terrance I love you Your soothing yet unnerving voice Well Terrance frankly Makes me want to do the do with you You know I saw those little elves with you You touch me [Verse 5] Well we've come to the place of the song right now Where I'm gonna fuck around Go for broke like my boy Jim Pembroke He inspired me to do a little something right here A little song and dance A little "take a chance" [Verse 6] I wanna know what is happening to the human psyche That it would in fact desire less and less and less Humanity [Verse 7] A green and gold marching band Stood alone with a man named Flat Stan With a plan on a balmy summer's eve Before bringing in the sheaves They ripped his tawdry wizard sleeve And his ADD met his OCD with his BPD Ok blah blah blah [Chorus] New England's shit Terrance I love you Your soothing yet unnerving voice Well Terrance frankly Makes me wanna do the do with you You know I saw the little elves with you
