"Born In The A.D's" lyrics

I was born in the A.D.'s
Still got a little bit of caveman fight in me
A little Genghis, a sprinkle of Voltaire
A chunk of Billy conqueror and big Ned fucking Kelly

Cometh the hour of the couch invader
And nicotine enthusiasts and whiskey by the litre
Duck-feather pillows and aircon blasting
From that B.C. megafauna

This is bloody living
Hey, this is bloody living
Ooh, yeah, this is bloody living
Yeah, this is bloody living

I was born in the A.D.'s
Still got that capital Roman nose ballooned on me
A little Saxon, a dash of the highland Celts
A proper Mongol, a bastion of face-melt

Each city will invade me
Oh, your city will invade me
Each city will invade me
Invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade...

Marble arch to Mardi Gras
Kingdom king to kingdom come

Straitjacket, remedy
Full frontal lobotomy
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah

Paid in paper, scissors win
British tea conquered heroin
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah

(Invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade...)

Marble arch to Mardi Gras

Straitjacket, remedy
Full frontal lobotomy
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah

Paid in paper, scissors win
British tea conquered heroin
Sing hallelujah
Sing hallelujah

Marble arch to Mardi Gras

On the marina, kick-ons end
Follow the leader, where and when
Another minute, one more hour
Another weekend, lights go out

I'm still breathing
I'm still stoned
I'm still standing
I'm still running, running

(Invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade, invade...)

Marble arch to Mardi Gras
Born into loose ends
Born into loose ends
Kingdom king, kingdom come
Born into loose ends
Born into loose ends
Marble arch to Mardi Gras
