lyrics

Your unwashed lips
Your garish boots
Ah your Ottoman suits
From your family's empire

Those honeyed days
Oh Mercury waves
And we ate parakeet eggs
In our perfect attire

But I'm tired of the scene
And It's tired of me

Now we're dressed
In last years magazines
Syphoning gasoline
To keep our cooking fires

And I stole you a Bellows book
From someone I mistook
For a friend for awhile

But I'm tired of that scene
So why don't we leave

To some far off land
Where the privilege ends
A place to stow skin
Where they'll visit

When we're old
Past the age
Of serenades
Once the piper's played
And we're tossed aside

Remember us in our vain youth
When we were of use
Once the living proof
That we tried
