Steve Mackey - The Fear lyrics

This is our "Music from A Bachelors Den" The sound of loneliness turned up to ten A horror soundtrack from a stagnant water-bed And it sounds just like this This is the sound of someone losing the plot Making out that they're okay when they're not You're gonna like it, but not a lot And the chorus goes like this Oh baby, here comes the fear again The end is near again A monkey's built a house on your back You can't get anyone to come in the sack And here comes another panic attack Oh, here we go again So now you know the words to our song Pretty soon you'll all be singing along When you're sad, when you're lonely, and it all turns out wrong When you've got the fear And when you're no longer searching for beauty or love Just some kind of life with the edges taken off When you can't even define what it is that you are frightened of This song will be here Oh baby, here comes the fear again The end is near again If you ever get that chimp off your back If you ever find the thing that you lack Oh, but you know you're only having a laugh Oh, here we go again Until the end Until the end
