The Icing On The World [Cardiacs Live]

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
When is it good or not good to perceive a petrifying life?
Or to solving a problem that's here tomorrow, gone today?
"I am a worthy subject," says one person catching somebody out
"And I'm tired of all that I am doing now," says somebody else

[Verse 2]
Not to reason why ours is but to do and die, says you, says I
Yes, it's starting to show, but it's already pie in the sky
No reason if adapted for ordinary use in everyday lives
There's a clause that's not written down
We assume it's just a disguise

[Chorus]
Look, I know everything, knowledge forms the bеst of me
After all I've donе, don't blame me
No, not all the time, I put the
Icing on the world

[Verse 3]
Something is wrong, so how is it now?
Is there something on your mind?
Or are your problems deleting the course that was set in your mind?
Now we are calm
Don't tell me you are living now, what you lived before
There's a will in everyone's mind to exude an air of some kind

[Verse 4]
Think back some years, the age of ten
That's not you, that was someone else
Different thoughts and surroundings, just memories exist today
When is it good? Tomorrow, the day after?
Is living but a farce?
There must be truth in what I say
Seeing as how the sun shines from my arse

[Chorus]
Dull seems the evergreen style of all our unity
Over the fence, an old mother's sympathy makes a spectacle of life
All for the sake of love

Look, I know everything, knowledge forms the best of me
After all I've done, don't blame me
No, not all the time, I put the
Icing on the world (world)

Look, I know everything, knowledge forms the best of me
After all I've done, don't blame me
No, not all the time, I put the
Icing on the world
World
World
