Luxuria - Redneck lyrics

rate me

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 as the Amazon

And I simply may be evil

I simply may be evil
