Echo & The Bunnymen - Idolness of Gods lyrics

If the world was half as mad as me Like that could ever be I'd say the world was crazy If I'm just half the man I was I'd say that's just because I must have gotten lazy Lazy In duty and in love In beauty wearing off Beware, be wary of The Idolness of Gods The Idolness of Gods The Idolness of Gods On the ropes against the tide There's nowhere left to hide Once you've seen my insides Broken hope broke open wide See the knock-out punch your pride I've got you seats at ringside Ringside In duty and in love In beauty wearing off Beware, be wary of The Idolness of Gods The Idolness of Gods The Idolness of Gods Oh, what now? Oh, what now? No, not now No, not now No, not now No, not now Nights and tears are falling down Keep splashing to the ground Eyelashes getting drowned-drowned Life's frontiers grew walls around New pastures can't be found I'm crashing cars in your town Your town In duty and in love In beauty wearing off Beware, be wary of The Idolness of Gods The Idolness of Gods The Idolness of Gods
