your worldview gets me down - the debutante hour lyrics

Loading...

people are trying to get and break and destroy you
people are going to get whatever they want
hurricanes blow through in torrents drunk, shipwrecked as sailors
no place is safe for a con man and his debutante

your wine stained old curtain got lost in a sudden tornado
your cabaret girls and their wigs hopped a train to la
the auctioneer sold the menagerie off for mere pebbles
there was nothing to do but to get on your knees and pray

lord, i can’t help it, i feel so unnecessary
lord, i’m redundant and worry that one day i’ll drown
well i’m not the lord and you didn’t ask my opinion
but i gotta say honey your worldview gets me down

la la la stringbean it was a joke, the ox and his yoke, we were all d-mned
tra la la stringbean you were a villain i was a damsel it was a scam

you locked the door one two three four cl!ck clock cl!ck clack times
certain the god of the sea was conspiring to flood out all the bad ones
all signs were pointing to h-ll and then straight to the devil
weeks p-ssed on the couch, we read sartre when we wanted some fun

then one sunday morning i ran for the next locomotive
my favorite stockings got left in the frenzied despair
but the one little token of you i could not forsake, dear
was the lock i had cut of your cherry red clown colored hair

you always sang
lord…

i’ve made a new friend and he’s world worn and cautious as i am
he’s hopeful to boot it’s an easier premise to take
he’s no evil villain but more than a little vaudevillian
when we laugh at the meaning of things there’s not too much at stake

lord…
