The Arrogance Of The Drunk Pedestrian

Lyrics

With the arrogance of the drunk pedestrian
 Taxi driver looks down my girlfriend's top
 Ask politely if he can be a gentlemen
 Pulls his aviators down so he doesn't have to stop
 And we'll keep on through the shit storm
 Until the metaphors are literal
 Forced screams are guttural
 And we'll keep on through the shit storm
 Until the metaphors, until the metaphors
 When I said this is all I had I meant it
 ♪
 Nice speak in the tired clichés of a strip club DJ
 Marvellous things so quickly get mundane
 When you see the scaffolding behind me
 And all the dirty air it always blocks your way
 And we'll keep on through the shit storm
 Until the metaphors are literal
 Forced screams are guttural
 And we'll keep on through the shit storm
 Until the metaphors, until the metaphors
 Until the metaphors
 When I said this was all I had I meant it
 When I said this was all I had I meant it
 When you said I was a bad person I felt it
 When I said this was all I had I meant it
 When you said that I had to destroy you
 I knew that part of you was trying to destroy me too
 When I said that I wanted to die I meant it
 When I said that you saved my life I meant it
 But goodbye
 Goodbye
 Goodbye
 Goodbye
