The Death Of Ferdinand De Saussre
Stephin Merritt
I met ferdinand se saussure
On a night like this
On love
He said

No understanding

To study orchids"
He says so
We don't know anything
You don't know anything
I don't know anything
About love
We are nothing whoaa
You are nothing
I am nothing
Without love

And not a violent man
But i lost my composure
And shot ferdinand
Crying it's well and kosher
To say you don't understand
But this is for holland dozier
Holland
His last words were
We don't know anything
You don't anything
I don't know anything
About love
We are nothing
You are nothing
Am nothing
Without love
His fading words were...
