Ive Been Expecting You — текст песни (Luxuria)

A massive moon

A jumped-up ape

I kiss the earth and choke

And make it to gatwick

With a drill

And ten red roses

I slip and fall

A banana skin

Break out my heart

Only waving

This nights fine

And all is fair

In love

And the war within me raging

You kill me off in theory

Then you pardon me for breathing

The sweet smell of the street

It was so forgiving



I threw everything at you

My misery, my joy and truth

My haemorrhaging time

You probably dont remember me

Et in arcadia ego

My feelings did so very much for you



I threw nearly everything at you

My misery, my joy and truth

My haemorrhaging time

And my piecemeal grief

And all I was in other eyes

I described it as I did

I tried to find the words to buy you

Cut through to your pretty bones like kindness



You didnt love me with a vengeance

It was always coming true

Am I lucky to be alive, my friend?

Ive been expecting you



You probably dont remember me

The bad old days and so on

Back when there was something wrong with love

Little room, jumped-up ape

I kiss the floor and joke

"youre not the only child round here"

In seaweed paint I dance for you

Round the ruins, round the view

The helen & menelaus snack bar

Then you killed me off in theory

Et in arcadia ego

My feelings did so very much for you



The pain is so extraordinary

This pain in all its story tells me

Pains the best all purpose preservative

You were one of my better creations

Everythings permitted I hereby swear

I cannot change this is how I see it

In these words not other words

Nor at other times nor otherwise

Nor otherwise nor otherwise



You didnt love me with a vengeance

It was always coming true

Am I lucky to be alive, my friend?

Ive been expecting you
