[00:14.400] As lonely as a poet on the walls of Jericho
[00:21.200] Or the moon without the comfort of the stars
[00:29.000] I am loathe to know it that a man without a soul
[00:35.800] Is nothing but a spilled canopic jar
[00:44.400] I proved it
[00:46.400] Improved it
[00:48.400] Drove a sonnet
[00:50.400] Right through it
[00:51.990] And in this state of bliss
[00:54.990] Evil kissed with wet lips
[00:57.000] Pen-filled Fingertips
[00:59.000] Which through me
[01:01.000] For through me
[01:02.600] Illuminati usually pissed
[01:06.300] But with words of some hurts worth
[01:09.800] I threw a party that extended God's list
[01:16.900] Exciting new flames that my fame would claim for me
[01:24.700] Reciting back the almanac of travesties
[01:36.400] They call me bad
[01:39.700] Mad Caliban with manners
[01:41.100] Dangerous to know
[01:43.300] A passing fad
[01:46.600] Taught in all debauch
[01:48.500] In excess and in canto
[01:50.800] Grown wild
[01:52.500] This child
[01:54.700] Whole harems defiled
[01:58.100] Faustina's and Mina's
[02:01.700] Lady Libertine and her sisters between her
[02:08.800] What spread of lies arise when lovers die
[02:16.200] Which circle of hell is mine when I arrive
[02:27.800] They call me bad
[02:30.900] Mad Caliban with manners
[02:32.800] Dangerous to know
[02:35.500] A passing fad
[02:38.500] Taught in all debauch
[02:40.020] Crow against the virgin snow
[02:42.600] Grown colder, my shoulder
[02:46.370] Like a boulder beside her
[02:50.320] And bolder, not wiser
[02:53.220] My dark seed took up root inside her
[02:57.120] That mouldered, where older
[03:00.112] Beddings would hold a passionate sigh
[03:04.120] But Laudanum and soda
[03:06.320] Lord Numb coda
[03:08.620] Merited a forest of inherited spite
[03:12.020] Fleeing grief for foreign maps
[03:15.820] I still played vampire aristocrat
[03:19.000] Unloading my gun in hot, promiscuous laps
[03:26.000] Then shooting swans in a gondola
[03:30.000] I tripped my foot on a fallen star
[03:33.020] And there's nothing like a mouthful of Venetian tar
[03:37.800] To let you know just who you f*** are
[03:45.550] The patron saint of heartache
[03:51.650] Can't see my world is falling
[03:54.350] The world is falling down
[04:00.000] The patron saint of heartache
[04:05.880] Can't see my world is falling
[04:09.000] The world is falling down
[04:10.900] Everafter can they hear my laughter
[04:14.600] The patron saint of heartache
[04:18.200] Never craft a better bed of disaster
[04:22.400] The Patron saint of heartache
[04:28.200] They call me bad
[04:31.200] Mad Caliban with manners
[04:33.200] Dangerous to know
[04:35.200] A passing fad
[04:38.800] Taught in all debauch
[04:40.340] In excess and in canto
[04:42.900] They call me bad
[04:46.500] Mad Caliban with manners
[04:48.500] Dangerous to know
[04:50.800] A passing fad
[04:53.200] Whereupon I tell them to go **** their mothers
[04:55.880] As so....
[04:58.100] On my grave
