MANIC STREET PREACHERS lyrics : "The Convalescent"

My bedroom wall recalls what's in my head
A collage constructed and constantly fed
Goya mixes Picasso but it's hardly Spain

Look through the window, pissing down with rain

Lovely labradors outnumber musicians

Bonnie and Clyde have made their good intentions
Pity poor Payne Stewart in a death bubble
But what a swing and so much bottle


So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Cos DNA means does not accept

So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Cos DNA means does not accept


Kleenex kitchen towels and teletext TV
My favourite inventions of the twentieth century
Haile Gebrselassie looks so sweet and young

Eyes quickly shift to Jack Kevorkian

Uneven and tidal all with exit policies

Followed by anti-ballistic migraines
And Brian Warner has a tasty little $$#
Scared of cash machines and the Mardi Gras


So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Cos DNA means does not accept

So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Cos DNA means does not accept


Alberto Juanterino unique in his field
These are the things that, that make you feel
Klaus Kinski with love off Werner Herzog

Scream until the war is over
Scream until the war is over


Srebrenica cousin of Treblinka
Scream until the war is over
War is over

And Dante's Inferno slides into dismorphia
So scream until the war is over


So I convalesce and I ease the stress
Cos DNA means does not accept
So I rehabilitate and get my body straight

Cos nothing fits like it used to fit
