Boy Avoidant
The apocalyptic present
An auction is being held
Chimerical antiques and concepts better left unspelled
And all the cheap and trivial is flying off the racks
Filling up the sea-chests and near spilling from the sacks
But in a bottom drawer
As the crowd begins to thin
Are all your fears and yearnings left
Spread out like spillikins
We need some time
To clear things up, you and I
Sort out the mess inside
Fade to grey, for a while
The oft-forgotten future
The curtain is coming down
On every silly poseur with a sloppy Britpop sound
And you may feel discouraged or you may feel relieved
When freedom, out of sight for years, is finally retrieved
More cars will be set ablaze
Out in the sunken street
And if the odd acquaintance
Should annoy you, press delete
We just need some time
To clear things up, you and I
Sort out the mess inside
Fade to grey, for a while
The ego's part of the game
Throw them a curveball, then another
Never remain the same
An auction is being held
Chimerical antiques and concepts better left unspelled
And all the cheap and trivial is flying off the racks
Filling up the sea-chests and near spilling from the sacks
But in a bottom drawer
As the crowd begins to thin
Are all your fears and yearnings left
Spread out like spillikins
We need some time
To clear things up, you and I
Sort out the mess inside
Fade to grey, for a while
The oft-forgotten future
The curtain is coming down
On every silly poseur with a sloppy Britpop sound
And you may feel discouraged or you may feel relieved
When freedom, out of sight for years, is finally retrieved
More cars will be set ablaze
Out in the sunken street
And if the odd acquaintance
Should annoy you, press delete
We just need some time
To clear things up, you and I
Sort out the mess inside
Fade to grey, for a while
The ego's part of the game
Throw them a curveball, then another
Never remain the same
