The Dissociatives - Young Man, Old Man lyrics

© Daniel Johns/Paul Mac

I'VE GOT A CLEARSPOT, A DEVILISH PSALM

BUT NOBODY'S HOME TO FIX THE ALARM NO

DISGRUNTLED WOMAN, ENCHANTED STAINS

WE'RE TEMPTED BY GOD BUT NOTHING REMAINS

HEY BOYS WE SPEAK BETTER THAN YOUNG MEN

BUT WILL BE BETTER THAN AN OLD MAN, HONEY, YOU'LL SEE

HEY BOYS WE SPEAK BETTER THAN YOUNG MEN

BUT WILL BE BETTER THAN AN OLD MAN, HONEY, YOU'LL SEE

MY FAITH IS HUNGRY LIKE WHALE FROZEN TOES,

STEAL CAP FINGERS AND NOBODY KNOWS

IT'S RAINING CONCRETE A TUNNEL WIND BLOWS

STONES ON MY COLUMN THE PATH THAT I CHOSE

NA NA NA NA…… (KIDS SING: YOU AIN'T BETTER THAN THE REST)
