Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x2

Are we institutionalised

by the demands of today?

In our regalia

are we ok?

Because the flash, of a blade

is one less getting paid

there in the line

And the ice, and gold

is just a double code...

It's a paradigm

For every little thing

that fashion gives you

Yeah

So the Puritan on a morning

said happy sad melody

I'm waltzing on an amazing pulse

in a pornographic sea

Where the absent blade

is one less in parade

To throw overboard

And the ice, and gold

it's just a double code

It's a metaphor

For every little thing

that fashion gives you Yeah

I'm Falling into something

that plays upon the metronome, in your heart

It's smoke and it's mirrors

until the auto cue starts

Then the dry ice comes

and we start sucking our

thumbs on the TV

And the joy of people

spirited away so merrily

is part of every little thing

that fashion gives you Yeah

(Here we go)

Lalala la lalala la

(Hey puritan Hey Puritan)

lalala la laaaa

lalala la lalala la

(what you gonna do about it?) (It's all smoke and mirrors)

lalala la laaaaa

lalala la lalala la

(What you gonna do about it?) (Hey Puritan Hey Puritan)

lalala la laaaaa

lalala la lalala la

(What you gonna do about it?)

lalala la lalala la

(What you gonna do about it?)
