lyrics

I pull the weight, I adore it
The heirloom lost to a callous heist
I’m getting ready to forfeit
Heinous from the spirit of the poltergeist

A geisha, leisurely foreign
Feigning in her veins but she’s seizing it
Her neighbor could be a sovereign
Reigning with a force that’s counterfeit

And I before E is failing

I s’pose I’m weird in my leisure
Under your surveillance, brutal feint
Falling from heights that are either
Obeisant or bound for the middle eight

Yes, I have no need to inveigle
Fighting off the zeitgeist, a codeine high
Dizzy and beige like a dreidel
Sitting on my keister until I die
