Madge, what's your secret?

Madge, what's your secret?

What's that in the sauce
What makes you water your mouth
How about the sound of a dog
Who's alone in the house

What makes you want to love
In a world full of automatons 
What's holding God above 
Who tells you you got it wrong

Fear, the secret ingredient 
Fear behind every decision
Fear you're paying its rent
Fear's got your money spent 

Haunted by your dreams
You don't know what they mean
Sands of time in the vaseline
Feel lucky you're so fucked

Fear behind every face
Fear of things unsaid 
Fear of what you really meant
Fear will hold your breath

Life of the ****

  Life of the ****   I love your body   I made a map that I study   there’s just one thing   that distracts me from loving   ideas haunt me   they take me out for shopping   through imagination   stretching endlessly   tell me what you’re building   behind those eyes   come live with me   in the life of the mind   we go from the streets   to penthouse high   but there’s something   more precious by design   enough parties   enough clothes   can’t spend hours   talking about sports   give me a novel or a film obscure my mind’s got enough   junk to last months

  Mayor McGuffin We are products of our times  these thoughts aren’t mine  everything passes through us  from sewers to the divine  I vibe on your signal  you wave you particle  merge into a molecule  divide for reaction deaf dumb and blind  slaves to the grind  compressed coal hearts  exploited diamond mines we see through the veil  dancing snake-tailed  impatient for the end  skipping enlightenment  I drive this carcass  despite warnings  from weather service  to deliver you a package
