Lyrics

Lesson one On how to be a confidante You put on your helmet And pray to any of the gods you heard about on Sundays And one of these days it'll all Belong to you Amen A wind blows and the daffodils grow In the borders, bushes, and bread bins And I'm in trouble again The charity band has lost its middle c You see The elderly children climb over the playpen And onto the bowling green It seems they have more in common with the veterans and con men with sandwiches Sandwiches Waves and waves of strawberry lace My doctor won't trеat animals And the veterinarian cannibals arеn't hungry Woe is me Back to the basics Oh let's start again We'll get it right this time in the end The fire of satan will have no reason to Burn Where did that come from? I seem to have become A preacher, of sorts I guess I'll sort the linens into darks and lights And delicates Like me But I'm a big strong man Make no mistake And I'll break Into song And when the whammy bar goes... All of my friends might sing along If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you Lesson two on how to be a confidante You tie your shoes in an equilateral nonogon And ponder on the meaning of truth Strewth Lies lies lies 'bout a dead butterfly That was actually a moth That I dipped in yellow dye and I Hung out on the washing line To dry with the dishcloths And dirty jokes I'll tell ya later Complex music and abstract art And obvious opinions Hold no place within the Cogs of heaven No no Yes yes Oui oui Uh huh Whatever And all of the above I only wanted to touch the face of My maker Of my maker Good little human A bad little rat Unanimous decision or Something like that Either way they better stay inside forever Lock 'em up! Oh that constellation Looks like it's taking the mick The mick Out of me Orion's belt has never felt so hostile I'm sure But I'm an open door to everything your Obligation ends with I want to be best friends with You Only you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you If I'm lucky I'll never have another friend like you
