Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Oh you venerated writer Could your knighthood be much whiter? Caricature, yeah for sure You write the eloquent charismatic poor Oh how we shiver to defend The sweaty words of celebrated men I will suck your poison pen To bring the novel back again Hero, nihilist, jailer You are oh so tall and sesquipedalian Tell me more about alienation You laureate of your station Oh how we shiver to defend The sweaty words of celebrated men I will suck your poison pen To bring the novel back again (With hard-edged narrative, history, geography Protagonist's progress, not autobiography His introspection cannot be indulgent An objective sun, he glories effulgent I've waited for years to speak truth to power How fashion's excluded the man in the tower How fashion eludes the man in the tower) Oh how we shiver to defend The sweaty words of celebrated men I will suck your poison pen To bring the novel back again
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
