Shriekback - Voiled Karletus Lyrics

Lyrics Voiled Karletus - Shriekback



The blight parade, that trite brigade
Were the vandals from the scandal in the motorcade
The industry, it's plain to see
Had to wangle all the angles for the press charade
The rest we see, interestingly
In the drizzle with a chisel and a pessary
The ones that stayed, the ones that strayed
All made a beeline for the felines in the company
I got Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
The righteous goons, check out their runes
As they caper with a taper to some acid tunes
The actor boys, the tractor boys
The wizards and the lizards in the harvest moon
The savage toys the lord employs
Make 'em snivel as they swivel like an anglepoise
The bright dragoons, their cheap festoons
Apostles with the fossils and the scraping noise
They got Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
It seems the crimes are always mine
I excoriate the horror but it feels divine
I like that scene in submarines
All the jackals in their shackles with the limpet mines
The lactic queen is so serene
See her nuzzle at the muzzle of an M16
She's fierce and fine, so many spines
She's got the hatchet and the ratchet
And the victor's spleen
She got Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
The fat and dumb to this have come
An historic paregoric, now we all feel numb
The shifty deals that time reveals
Show a raked accumulation, wanna get me some
The slimy spiels, one sometimes feels
Are a nation's lubrication for its squeaky wheels
That upturned bum, those bony gums
Don't tussle with the muscle of the poison eels
Got Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
Voiled Karletus! Voiled Karletus!
Saul don't have it, just believe it
(Chimps in exile can't receive it)
Clench don't got it
Quite surprising, he bought all our merchandising
Delia has done the cooking
(No one ugly gets a look in)
Got two sizes, huge and man-size
Calvin Klein has bought the franchise
Saul don't have it, just believe it
(Chimps in exile can't receive it)
Clench don't got it
Quite surprising, he bought all our merchandising
Delia has done the cooking
(No one ugly gets a look in)
Got two sizes, huge and man-size
Calvin Klein has bought the franchise
Saul don't have it, just believe it
(Chimps in exile can't receive it)
Clench don't got it
Quite surprising, he bought all our merchandising
Delia has done the cooking
(No one ugly gets a look in)
Got two sizes, huge and man-size
Calvin Klein has bought the franchise
