John Grant - Grey Tickles, Black Pressure

Disappointing

Roller coasters and Earl Gray Malts
Ocelot babies but not bath salts
Harvest moon in the arms of a tree
Which has been growing there for centuries

Bassoons, trombones and French horn sections
Bass clarinets and string art collections
Owls and guitars when they do not match
Gilda, Kristen, Cheri, Tina, Amy and Rachel Dratch

All these things they're just disappointing
All these things they're just disappointing compared to you
There's nothing more beautiful than your smile as it conquers your face
There's nothing more comforting than to know
Know you exist in this time, in this place

The genitive case in German, it's true
Is something that I'm quite partial to
Rachmaninov, Scriabin, Prokofiev
Dostoevsky, Bulgakov, Vysotsky and Lev

Francis Bacon, dolomites
Ballet dancers with or without tights
Central Park on an autumn day
Will always be stunning and never cliché

All these things they're just disappointing
All these things they're just disappointing compared to you
There's nothing more beautiful than your smile as it conquers your face
There's nothing more comforting than to know
Know you exist in this time, in this place

All these things they're just disappointing
All these things they're just disappointing compared to you
There's nothing more beautiful than your smile as it conquers your face
There's nothing more comforting than to know
Know you exist in this time, in this place
