The Angels - Mr. Damage lyrics

Holding council with the king and queen Trying hard to decide the fate of their regime There's only one needed to complete the harmonizin' And that's a man with a voice like a scraping violin Waiting for Mr. Damage Toothless jaws gumming melancholy stuff A burst of rapid fire Spanish from a window up above Students out to pose in studied dissarray Books of Sartre, Marcuse openly displayed Waiting for, Mr. Damage Mr. Damage, walks through the doors of the sacrificial church Mr. Damage, meets you in the lobby then leaves you in the lurch Mr. Damage, stands at the altar, Sermon of the search All the faithful follow Resident winos stumbling and lurching Walking cadavers smiling and searching Man in the DT's looking at the feeble glossy portraits of long dead celebrated people Waiting for Mr. Damage Trying hard just to keep a candle lit A leather flyer leaves the subway anxious to admit That the marvelled one so recently deposed was seen Three days later in a brand new suit of clothes A brand new suit of clothes for a very special day A brand new suit of clothes for a very special day A brand new suit of clothes for a very special day A very special day, a very special day, a very very very special dayyyyy - OOOOWWWWWW Mr Damage holds a curse Mr Damage drives a hearse Don't you know who did it first...Mr Damage Holding council with the king and queen Trying hard to decide the fate of their regime There's only one needed to complete the harmonizin' And that's a man with a voice like a scraping violin Waiting for Mr. Damage Mr. Damage, walks through the doors of the sacrificial church Mr. Damage, meets you in the lobby then leaves you in the lurch Mr. Damage, stands at the altar, Sermon of the search All the faithful follow Holding frozen hands as Mr, Holding frozen hands as Mr, Holding frozen hands as Mr, Damage holds the curse.......
