Luxuria - Redneck lyrics



It's opening night
let's give them their money's worth
may this show run and run
till it falls off the edge of the earth
put on your make-up
powder puff adder of mine
dusk is upon us
switch on that shining sign

I am a major prophet
I'm heaven and hell bent strong
I am the height of a sign
wide of the mark
deep as the Amazon

I must impress on them
this opportunity
it'll be too late
by the time they put me on TV
I feel sharp
I feel blunt
a precision instrument
I really gleam
watch me bite on a bullet
and spit out a limousine

I am a major prophet
I'm heaven and hell bent strong
I am the height of a sign
wide of the mark
deep as the Amazon

Feel my wild sadness blowing down
feel my wild sadness blowing
all the way down

I stand before you
in full possession of the facts
I make no use of effects
no use for clever counterbalancing acts
I've broken every bone of meaning
in this body and this soul
I've bought knowledge
at the cost of a complete loss of self-control

All the truth you can bear
is yours to take away tonight
- the longer you leave it
- the more there's to leave
like you, I once saw
those pretty colours in black and white
- you've got to get it over with
- stop being naive
strangers to truth and to fiction
you will remain
- if I meet you at the fountainhead
- I'll win you downstream
walk away if you like
you've only yourself to blame
- I'm not talking eyewash
- I'm talking strychnine

I am a major prophet
I'm heaven and hell bent strong
I am the height of a sign
wide of the mark
deep
