"Emanuel Cant" lyrics

"Emanuel Cant"

Oh, shake your head and smile, Emanuel Cant
And the sonnet was a piece upon the floor
It was in the falling rain
That you said, please, come again

Just shake your head and smile, Emanuel Cant
You can't, say you cancel, if you can't, Emanuel Cant
Just shake your head and smile, Emanuel Cant

There's some truth inside that [?], Emanuel Cant
And its there for you to crawl around and see
It will hang around your find
Like a millstone on your mind

Just shake your head and smile, Emanuel Cant
You can't, say you cancel, if you can't, Emanuel Cant
Just shake your head and smile, Emanuel Cant
