You're just another easy-going phoney
Projecting your dreams onto mine
That Library of Babel Facebook shit
Contains every truth every lie
Cruelty is the law pervading all nature and society
It doesn't help you yuppies teaching your kids that
Happiness is money and greed
You're pissing superfluous
As more plastic's chucked in the sea
Plastic girls mince by
Romantically fucked beneath the Eiffel Tower
On a Tuesday night
The silence of infinite spaces
So dark so soft so odd
The streets are strewn with body parts
For some cunt of a God
He's pissing superfluous
Eking a living of loneliness
Puzzled by the cold inside
Enjoying my death in the darkness here: my suicide
Scraping the ground where the barrel was
Laughing where dogs go mad
Oblivion claims even stones and names
It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad
I'm pissing superfluous
Necking moonshine made with the yeast from an old pair of underpants
Snorting lines of powdered lemsip
A member of the public grovelling publicly to Megham Markle
I sold my shadow to a man in grey
He was the patron saint of all atheists
Who are the newsagents always on the phone to anyway
They're pissing superfluous
