Lyrics A God in an Alcove (Live At Hammersmith Palais, 9th November 1981) - Bauhaus
Go
and
look
for
the
dejected
Once
proud
idol
remembered
in
stone
aloud
Then
on
coins
his
face
was
mirrored
Take
a
look,
it
soon
hath
slithered
To
a
fractured
marble
slab
Renunciation
clad
His
nourishment
extract
from
his
subjects
That
mass
production
profile
He's
a
God
in
an
alcove
Once
he
spread
the
rain
So
they
dreamt
in
vain
Once
he
spread
the
wheat
Had
made
some
garlands
for
his
feet
Until
the
lily
poet
of
our
times
Horizoned
on
the
line
Love
became
the
in
theme
then
Opposing
fakers
thrice
by
ten
Don't
perceive
his
empty
plea
That
redundant
effigy
He's
a
God
in
an
alcove
Take
in
view
his
empty
stool
What's
left
is
satin
cool
Clawing
adornment
for
his
crimes
They
saw
they
had
to
draw
the
line
So
they
sent
him
far
away
So
they
sent
him
far
away
To
a
little
alcove
To
a
little
alcove
all
alone
He's
a
God,
a
God
Now
I
am
silly
Now
I
am
silly
So
silly,
silly
Silly,
silly,
silly,
silly
Silly,
silly
