I Don't Care to Know the Method to the Madness
Recorded by:
Slugs Revenge
From the Album:
Revenge is Never a Four Letter Word
Lyrics and notesI stand here on this plot of ground
watch many strange things make the rounds
and know for damn sure I don't know a thing
After each unique day is done
the stars and moon conquer the sun
and darkness comes to swallow me, it seems.
Flowers bloom and water flows and dust inches through beams of light
as shapes and colors move throughout the land
stiffened bodies decomposed so beautifully, they never fight this madness that I do not understand
I move my fingers across strings attached to plastics, woods, and things
and listen as it serenades my ear
I move my soul all over flesh and thrash in slithery unrest
and make love to the ones that I hold so dear.
And then pain as sharp as razor-wire tears and slices through my brain
as people try to make sense of it all
words are shot as fast as fire
Some would call it logic
but I hate it every time I hear it spoke.
CHORUS:
Because why the moon illuminates don't mean a thing to me
Nor does the science of the setting of the sun
So don't explain to me all these lovely things I see
And in my blissful ignorance I'll always play and run
Birth is given, people die, and clouds of white roll through the sky
Fire burns and tears are shed each day
Cum is shot and truth is sought
Eyes shot forever and people rot
And it's all pretty darn gorgeous to me.
But you cursed beast of certainty
just keep your distance far from me
and let my senses roll me through this life
And you demons of philosophy
be damned to hell or some such place
keep your disciples quiet for a while.
CHORUS
