Damon Albarn - The Puritan lyrics

[Verse 1] Are we institutionalised By the demands of today? In our regalia are we ok? Because the flash of a blade Is one less getting paid There in the line And the ice and gold Is just a double code It's a paradigm [Chorus] For every little thing That fashion gives you Yeah [Verse 2] So the puritan On a Monday morning said Happy sad melody I'm waltzing On an amazing pulse In a p**nographic sea Where the absent blade Is one less in parade To throw overboard And the ice and gold Is just a double code It's a metaphor [Chorus] For every little thing That fashion gives you Yeah [Verse 3] I'm falling into something That plays upon the metronome In your heart It's smoke and it's mirrors Until the auto cue starts Then the dry ice comes And we start s**ing our thumbs on the TV And the joy of people Spirited away so merrily [Chorus] For every little thing That fashion gives you Yeah [Bridge] Here we go [Outro] La la la, la, la la la, la La la la, la la... Hey puritan, hey puritan La la la, la, la la la, la... What you gonna do about it? La la la la la... It's all smoke and mirrors La la la, la, la la la, la... What you gonna do about it? La la la la la... Hey puritan, hey puritan La la la, la, la la la, la... What you gonna do about it? La la la la la... La la la, la, la la la, la What you gonna do about it? La la la la la... La la la, la, la la la, la...
