Steve Kilbey - No Such Thing lyrics

rate me

There's no such thing as remindlessness

There's no such thing as time

There's no such thing as endlessness

There's no such kind of crime

There's no such thing as distance

There's no such thing as doubt

There's no such thing as magic, no

And if there was well I would have found out

I would've

I live in the solid world, I don't believe in ghosts

Verification, not imagination, I like my logic the most

A jealous god is a god of law, he taxes numbers and steel

It makes me proud to shout out loud that all these things are real

There's no such thing as surrealism

There's no such thing as soul

There's no such thing as intuition

There's no such thing as rock and roll

There's no such thing as love babe

It's just a chemical in your mind

There's no such thing as coming back

Empirical evidence is hard to find

I live in the concrete now, enjoy my beer and sport

I'm not moved if it can't be proved or settled out of court

I don't believe in miracles, and please don't mention the church

Someone said it's all in your head but it wasn't worth the search

I live in the solid world, I don't believe in ghosts

Verification, not imagination, I like my logic the most

A jealous god is a god of law, he wields numbers and steel

It makes me proud to shout out loud that all these things are real

They're real, airy-fairy

Apart from you, and you newfangled whippersnappers and upstarts

I'll believe in what I can touch. That's not much.

It's not my problem if you believe in fairies and elves and gnomes

and genies and witches and goblins and dreams and non-manifest identities.

Inchoate pantheon of non-existent gods.

You can't touch it, don't touch it
