There's a deathly chill
Hanging over this town
Wear all the flowers you want to
It'll still be here when you take everything off
This unmusical silence
It cannot go on
Play that chord again and
Sing a standard or two
There are no other songs to sing anymore
And all that we've said is all that could ever have been said to us
That's all there is to say when you're coming down with tulips and you're holding up the hem
Hey little posh boy
You're so much money
So very very funny
How you think you're going to help
The flowers are a nice touch
But we'd rather have your legs
Tie your tie too tight and
Let us fill up your throat
Your voice is climbing up the octaves
Your eyes roll back in your head
Constriction heals all but the deepest of wounds
You've got to put me in that little box
But there are no boxes big enough
Too much room in the future for you to come along
This isn't culture anymore
Alphabetize me
Compartmentalize me
Decimalize me
Alleviate me
Alphabetize me
Compartmentalize me
Rationalize me
Asphyxiate me
