Maximo Park - The Unshockable Maximo Park - The Unshockable |
| The lines of transport make their way through towns
At any cost… name a price
Digging through towns
Make way, like Moses through the waves.
Pick and choose from a folklore
To describe the biggest events.
Did I make it all up?
Detritus gathers
Until dirt is the only layer you see
Scratch away. Scrape away
Lacerate, keep scratching!
Have we become The Unshockable?
Or have we become The Saddened?
Activity is absent
Things are looking scarce
The human heart is on trial for a limited spell
A human heart is on offer for a limited spell
Your body was your great strength
How do you feel now there’s nothing left?
The moment's gone.
For me, you spent too many hours in bed.
Do you think this is cruel?
Sniggering clowns
In laughter, we hide behind our hands.
Take them away, move them away
Stand up straight, Keep turning!
Have we become The Unshockable?
Or have we become The Saddened?
Activity is absent
Things are looking scarce
Conceal those thoughts that linger
On your breath
Keep them hidden
Or they'll catch their death.
The modes of transport forge their way through town
Take them away…
Keep turning…
Have we become the unshockable…?
