Dictate to me, in alchemy The lyrical repose Don't cheat me with soliloquy I hear poetry in prose O here they go, O how they fall The words upon my ears The sentences and phrases all around I overhear Yeah Sometimes I hope to anger you The words you spit at me The vociferous louder the scream All I hear's poetry The inspiration's in the conversation Like the one where you said "so long"
So be careful what you say to me It could end up in a song "Stop the bus and let me off" That's a song "All my friends are drunks" That's a song "I have to enter the UFO!" That's a song f** ya, that's a song Yeah All our plans and empires ashen All our songs will remain unsung Sing to me these choruses say Like a child's prayer we all say yeah
