"Synopsis For Latecomers" lyrics
"Synopsis For Latecomers"
For everyone who only just arrived
A quick synopsis
If you came late and missed the commotion
And you wonder what was all that
Here's the recap
Sound of gathering and shuffling of notes
I assure you there's a very simple explanation
If you'd only be patient
Okay, you're asking how container ships were found abandoned in the desert sands covered in snakes
And who composed the ransom note and taped it to the face of the equestrian monument?
You'll get your answers, all in due time
I know you've all been wondering
About the plaintive moaning emanating from the forest every evening
I know the question that is foremost in your thoughts
Who ate the babies? who ate the babies?
All we can say right now is that we're taking all conceivable protective means to secure this area
In particular, with reference to the worrisome volcano that emerged beneath us overnight
That's all the questions that time will permit
I'm afraid we'll have to leave it right there
Be assured that there's nothing more that can be done
That's all the questions that time will permit
I'm afraid we'll have to leave it right there
Be assured that there's nothing more that can be done
Doo doo lee doo doo lee doo doo lee do
Doo doo lee do do do do
Doo doo lee do do do
Doo doo lee doo doo lee doo doo lee do
Doo doo lee do do do do
Doo doo lee do do
Woah

The Orion Experience - "The Cult Of Dionysus" Yesterday I heard you say
Your lust for life has gone away
It got me thinking, I think I feel a similar way

Guster - "Do You Love Me" We were young, twenty-one
All those years ago
In came the fascination
Everything was out of control
A life, untried
From thickets and from thorns
Out came a revelation
Everything was out of control...

This is my private place
