Hypnoprism

Lyrics

In the era of the hypnoprism
 In the wake of the collapsing pound
 I met a beautiful Algerian travel agent
 With a horror of sound
 I'm a little misunderestimated
 I can measure up to nothing much
 Give me half a chance I am a crippled tiger
 And you are my crutch
 I've been following a dismal gollum
 Like a pierrot follows Columbine
 And there's going to be a horrid harvest
 When the water turns to wine
 And I love you like I love the wriggly
 And you lick me like a spotted dog
 You're my velvet azure from Algeria
 And we bone in the fog
 Acts of love on astrakhan carpets
 In the apartment of Salvador Dali
 With a white imperial bastard colonist
 Who looks a lot like me
 I'm a little misunderestimated
 I will give you back your piece of cake
 I've only eaten one bite of it
 Anyone could make the same mistake
 If I give you too much information
 Defriend me on the next bardo
 I have a horror of communication
 But I so long to know
 I've got a spotty case of alopecia
 I've been howling like a haunted dog
 And I've been having sex in prison
 Like a bone in the fog
 I'm at home amongst your sombre reptiles
 Basking in your garden lair
 And I like to speak the words the tortoise uses
 To outfox the hare
 And there's a scent of candle wax on pine cones
 And you look a lot like Sylvia Kristel
 And I'd like to call you Princess Tenderloin
 Or simply Mirabelle
 I'm a little misunderestimated
 And I'm older now than Erza Pound
 Don't check your wallet there's nothing in it
 I'll see you around
