Eels - Altar boy

Tekst :

A monk with a hard-on
And a lavender robe
That scratches his thighs
Through the hat that he strode
As he follows a path
Filled with every desire
And mimics his footsteps
And sets his prayers on fire.

Well I too have chosen
That which left no choice
To sing without loving,
A solitary voice,
To observe with passion
Each careful denial:
The protrusions which give my life meaning
For a while.

Sometimes I see you in berries and weeds
You’re brushing your teeth with liquorice seeds
Standing too close,
Pulling your clothes,
Smiling at god
And the meaning of life grows.

No and I’ll never tell
And I’ll never know
What candles you light
After the show
And I’ll never tell,
And I’ll never ask
The meaning of life after mass.

    Saddo

    Oh oh....
    here he comes....
    look out
    (eeeeeeeeek!!!!)


    Still hangin out in Camden town.
    Same old crowd, same old scene
    You know what I mean

    (he s a...)

    (Chorus 1)
    Saddo
    What a faker, what...

    Doctor Mary

    I went to see Doctor Mary
    She asked me kindly what’s wrong can you tell me?
    I said I need a prescription
    To cure me up from my new addiction

    Cause my head is spinning
    My mind keeps on dreaming
    My hands are shaking
    My knees might be breaking

    I wake up crying
    Can’t eat and I’m starving
    I’m not...

    Kill the king

    Danger, danger
    The Queen s about to kill
    A stranger, stranger
    Life s about to spill

    Pre-Chorus:
    Oh no
    Move away from harm
    I need a spell, a charm
    Fly like the wind
    And the pawn will be gone
    Speed on, and on

    Kill the king
    Tear him down
    Kill the king
    Strike him down

    Power,...

    I gotta keep dancing

    I gotta keep dancing
    Smiling
    To keep from breaking apart
    I gotta keep dancing
    Smiling
    To cover up my broken heart
    I began to spin
    Please help me pretend, that I don t see
    Just walked in the door
    I m weak in the knees
    But I gotta make believe
    That I m hurt-free
    I just can t let...

    Heaven

    A star shining in a universe far away
    My heart knows that we shall meet again some sweet day
    And you, you will be the flame that burns in my breast
    And oh, I know just by knowing you I was blessed.
    Yes I was truly blessed

    Heaven, Heaven, ooh waiting there for me
    Heaven, Heaven,...
