Father John Misty

Father John Misty - The Memo lyrics

Your rating:

I'm gonna steal some bedsheets

From an amputee

I'm gonna mount em on a canvas

In the middle of the gallery

I'm gonna tell everybody

It was painted by a chimpanzee

Just between you and me

Here at the cultural low watermark

If it's fraud or art

They'll pay you to believe



I'm gonna take five young dudes

From white families

I'm gonna mount 'em on a billboard

In the middle of the country

I'm gonna tell everybody

They sing like angels with whiter teeth

But just between you and me

They're just like the ones before

With their standards lower

Another concert-goer will pay you to believe



Oh, caffeine in the morning, alcohol at night

Cameras to record you and mirrors to recognize

And as the world is getting smaller, small things take up all your time

Narcissus would have had a field day if he could have got online

And friends it's not self-love that kills you

It's when those who hate you are allowed

To sell you that you're a glorious shit

The entire world revolves around

And that you're the eater, no not the eaten

But that your hunger will only cease

If you come binge on radiant blandness

At the disposable feast



(You're enjoying the chill winter playlist)

Just quickly how would you rate yourself

[?]

In terms of sex appeal and cultural significance?

(Irony, irony

Blo blo blo blo blo blo blo)

Do you usually listen to music like this?

(Just one more mile, you can do it again)

Can we recommend some similar artists?

(This is totally the song of my summer)

Are you feeling depressed?

(This guy just gets me)

But your feedback's important

To us

(Music is my life)



Gonna buy myself a sports team

And put 'em in a pit

I'm gonna wage the old crusade

Against consciousness

All I need's a couple winners

To get every loser to fight in it

Keep the golden calf

Just need the bullshit

And they won't just sell themselves into slavery

They'll get on their knees and pay you to believe
