lyrics

Supercilious

I've got
Nothing in my pocket
but two dimes, a napkin, and no cares

But I'll try
Yes, I'll try
to cast the sea-stop flames our eyes would share

Maybe
I'll be your baby
for three mules, a kopeck, and a create of bread

But I'll try
Yes, I'll try
to weigh such exorbitance too within my bed

An impoverished thought
loops the hangman's knot
for a wayfarer's leap from life
to the dust

A pauper's words
fail an affectless world rife--

He's supercilious!

Maybe
I'll be your baby
but two dimes, a napkin, and no cares

But I''l try
Yes, I'll try
to weigh such exorbitance too within my bed


An impoverished thought
loops the hangman's knot
for a wayfarer's leap from life
to the dust

A pauper's words
fail an affectless world rife--

He's supercilious!
