Instead...I Became Anenome
He's living in a loney tenement
(floor carpeting by Excrement)
Drinking from a glass of sediment
Trying to live down a speech impediment
Wallowing in second-hand misery
An anti-social history...
I learnt all the worst things in life are free
Found the key to the land of the not-so-free
Another stitch in life's rich tapestry
INSTEAD...I BECAME ANENOME
An urgent sea urchin who's searching for his own reward
Does'nt know the value of someone else's values
(or he can't afford to)
A poke in the eye of the right. A knee in the social groin
Faux pas and two-headed monsters springing from his loins
WHO CARES about the thoughts of a drunken sailor?
WHO CARES about the thoughts of a sunken failure?
He's bleached; washed up; hung out to dry
What'll we do with him? (STICK HIM UP THE CHIMNEY!)
I used all of the money they lent to me
I was beginning to drown in an endless sea
But I learnt not to sit under the apple tree
INSTEAD...I BECAME ANENOME
Learnt all the worst things in life are free
Found the key to the land of the not-so-free
Another stitch in life's rich tapestry
INSTEAD...I BECAME ANENOME
I'm just trying to make my whims meet up with my ideology
When is an indulgence not an indulgence? When it's a necessity
There's no patent on the obvious, only on the seven deadly sins
One man's cynicism is another man's philosophy
WHO CARES about the thoughts of a drunken sailor?
WHO CARES about the thoughts of a sunken failure?
(Another stitch in life's rich tapestry)
ONE MAN'S FISH IS ANOTHER MAN'S POISSON
My seventh sin is to choose to be...(HE CHOSE TO BE ANENOME)
I'm just trying to make my whims meet up with my ideology
I USED ALL OF THE MONEY THEY LENT TO ME
I WAS BEGINNING TO DROWN IN THE EMPTY SEA (MTC)
BUT I LEARNT NOT TO SIT UNDER THE APPLE TREE
INSTEAD...I BECAME ANENOME
LEARNT ALL THE WORST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE
FOUND THE KEY TO THE LAND OF THE NOT-SO-FREE
ANOTHER STITCH IN LIFE'S RICH TAPESTRY
INSTEAD...I BECAME ANENOME
