Form and Substance
Corroding the metal frees the spirit of the letters
The learning lines of this trade
Defined the bargain you made
Scrape the varnish away
Expose the copper bright day
Straining at the wheel
Chafing at the deal
When the day's done
You wonder if it has achieved
Or deceived you...
Font of others' Desire
Corrupts your own Holy Fire
Molten form sans serif
Erodes your soul felt belief
Raging at the Way
Graving just for Pay
When the day's done
You wonder if it has achieved
Or deceived you...
Reverse the Image you know
So that it just goes to show
The varnish, acid and plate
Provide the means to create
Graving leads the Way
Forward to our 'Glad Day'
Even though Nobodaddy
Could never conceive
Or believe You
Why was I born with a diff'rent face?
Why was I not born like the rest of my race?
Graving leads the way
Forward to our 'Glad Day'
Even though Nobodaddy
Could never conceive
Or believe You
The learning lines of this trade
Defined the bargain you made
Scrape the varnish away
Expose the copper bright day
Straining at the wheel
Chafing at the deal
When the day's done
You wonder if it has achieved
Or deceived you...
Font of others' Desire
Corrupts your own Holy Fire
Molten form sans serif
Erodes your soul felt belief
Raging at the Way
Graving just for Pay
When the day's done
You wonder if it has achieved
Or deceived you...
Reverse the Image you know
So that it just goes to show
The varnish, acid and plate
Provide the means to create
Graving leads the Way
Forward to our 'Glad Day'
Even though Nobodaddy
Could never conceive
Or believe You
Why was I born with a diff'rent face?
Why was I not born like the rest of my race?
Graving leads the way
Forward to our 'Glad Day'
Even though Nobodaddy
Could never conceive
Or believe You
