"Oscar Wilde" lyrics

"Oscar Wilde"

Episodes and parallels
Don't you want the invitation?
Big bright accent, catty smile
Oscar Wilde confrontation

I live like it's the style
Oh, we waltz on your front porch

We are all our own devil
We are all our own devil
And we make this world our hell
He said
We are all our own devil
We are all our own devil
And we make this world, we make this world our hell

Porcelain teacups decorate
Tables and the conversations
Beauty pageants, all the time
Is running out, the time is running out

Live like it's the style
Oh, we waltz on your front porch

We are all our own devil
We are all our own devil
And we make this world our hell
He said
We are all our own devil
We are all our own devil
And we make this world, we make this world our hell

Time keeps on ticking away
It's always running away
Always running from time
Time keeps on ticking away
Always running away
We're always running in time
Time keeps on ticking away
Always running away
We're always running from time
Time keeps on ticking away
Always running away
We're always running in time

Time keeps on ticking away
Always running away
Always running from time
Time keeps on ticking away
Always running away
We're always running from time
Time keeps on ticking away
Always running away
We're always running in time
Time keeps on ticking away
It's always running away

We are all our own devil
We are all our own devil
And we make this world our hell
We are all our own devil
We are all our own devil
And we make this world, we make this world our hell

Oh, we make it our hell
We make it our hell
Ah, ah, make it our hell
