Dans
So picture a pet I could teach to dance Wouldn't you want to see its moves? Must be strict as any coach about diet But still kinda cute how it's out-grown the costume N'est ce fucking pas? And cute to see it do the broken glass dance Whilst yobbos compare cock size Or lap at some monstrous fucking minge
So picture we open that academy Of most gifted and naturally flexible Scholarships for poor or recently orphaned Travel as we please Make money where we can Anticipate the whole troupe's annual visit To perform in our honour As the finest prepare to one day replace us
So look in that mirror Let's see if you've changed Do you see that? You know really you too often sneer? You forget your words? Remember the heavy breath as you dance in the dark? Remember legs give way outside ASDA? You see all that? Rapid calculating sidelong glances Discontent and hunger Forget the kid who was never had It's just plain fucking indifference.
So okay, pick a child, any child To see one stumble To see one painfully spastic movement Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com To see one crawl through a window To see one blown back out Ripped tiny torso: nice new sandals What choreography Skinny boy arms form the cross Heavy hand pulls down hard on unformed mini-muscle What fucking choreography
So picture a ballet at Sadler's Wells For 600 malnourished children below 10 Dressing up in special costumes Carrying baseball bats studded with nails Like clubbing seals Wading across the stage: harvesting the crop Tying down or something like Nailing to the floor Picture how hot it gets under those lights And now try in vain to say those fucking lines.
So remember creeping out the Arab bookstore? Buying posters of child martyrs and suicide brigades Before going to the Tate Before the bomb on the bus Now you've painted over your mirror You've stopped replying to SMS Stagefright or pills that make you shake? Go on, shake it Because one day I'll have one Dressed up in ballet shoes Precious hair bound with bright pink pig gut So just lick that piss from your fucking lips And just try to say your fucking lines.
