Bastard Son Lyrics

Bastard Son lyrics

Urban enzyme digest slowly

eating crust and crouton wholly

Cut up news
with froth and frolic

hero doomed and alcoholic

not a picture prized or
pretty

burning engines in the city

not a word now could be
tainted

when ivory teeth come golden plated 



running frowning
waving madly

came from nothing returning gladly

he said strip, strip,
shout it out

you've done me over, now let me out

the bastard son of....
the bastard son of you know who. 



flashes lighten grime and
gravy

instant when it's bright and maybe

happiness will someday
bite

from eating starbeams in the night

crunch it chew it spit it
out

strip the flesh and suck it out

between the teeth of envy
plain

come bits of cosmos fire and rain 



Will you ever know how it
feels

no mother or father to depend upon

will you ever know how it feels


to be alone in this world - all alone
