Magellan Critic`s Carnival Lyrics

Critic`s Carnival Lyrics

The Solano County Engineering Archives, vault 1 

Feel free, write your scathing indictment 
Pick us apart with your joke of a pen 
Pacified poet, standing alone you know it 
I hear you preaching: 
"Do it again - won`t you please do it again?" 

Plenty of time - hear the hypocrites whine 
Pathetic business - 
take it, test it, know it, burn it 
It`s all a game you play so mealy mouthed 
at the trough we lay 
I hear you pleading: 
"Do it again - won`t you please do it again?" 

Take it all upon you now 
Make you mark somehow 
and keep it going 
With illusions that you`re real 
and phrases that you`ll steall 
At your best you`ll drag them down 

I`ve heard it all before 
it`s all been said before 
extending all an invitation - welcome to the 

Critic`s Carnival - 
Where writers think they know more than you 
No, don`t be a fool at Critic`s Carnival 

A bully pulpit built to spin a phrase 
will "pitch" a sermon for you 
if you`ve got the money to pay at the 
Critic`s Carnival 
buy fifty dollar words, try bull-shit 

No, don`t be deceived at Critic`s Carnival... 

Invite us to your ivory tower 
Impress me with your 
insightfull gift of genius 
Yes, you can dish it out 
A coward too much clout 
Hungry for power - 

Do it again - won`t you please do it again? 
Monday morning`s last draft quarterback 
Get it right get it wrong 
We`ve just dragged on too long 
It`s all a game you play 
so mealy mouthed at the through we lay 
I know you hear me! 
Do it again won`t you please do it again? 

Well?
