We laze with a glaze by now well defined
And I'm tired of being polite
The choices on offer are disconcerting
And I'm tired of hearing "what's your poison?"
What will I do for pleasure?
Are they suffering from collective amnesia?
Is it me whom you define?
We've become star-crossed with ourselves and our own bodies
Outside the grounds they continue
Stoking and stoking and stoking up a fervour
What I choose to do to myself gets tongues wagging
Why do I pretend to be a cool bachelorette?

The Ides of March

You know you've got it bad
When your neck looks rather fetching
Inside the frame of a guillotine
The declaration of disease
Brought a city to its knees
In a scene befitting of your dream
The people who surround you, are they fawning?
Now see there all peripheries, are they yawning?
Now see them on their bellies now for you crawling
You are not a drone who is 9 to 5
So what did you expect from the Ides of March?
The visceral urge to madden
Juxtaposed with the charm of Basil Brush is unnerving
Much like the smile with the scythe
And the one thing we've deduced is that you're a creature of habit
In that you're always wrecking other people's lives
The people who surround you, are they fawning?
Now see there all peripheries, are they yawning?
Now see them on their bellies now for you crawling
You are not a drone who is 9 to 5
So what did you expect from the Ides of March?
It's so sad to see you go
Well you had sufficient time to know
Well maybe you did, but it just didn't show
Your dreams are flat and a pack of lies
So what did you expect from the Ides of March
Well now it doesn't make any difference
For you my friend are sleeping with the fishes
Your murder at the hands of friends scorned and vicious
Who buried your bones in an unmarked grave
So what did you learn from the Ides of March?
