The Minotaur lyrics
by Gareth Liddiard
They come, they go
They never do not go
They come, they see
They conquer then they leave
With man-eating beliefs
Superior of death
With lineage and myth
And a half-heartedness at birth
And I have the same old dream
About a tunnel by my bed
From where the stench of sh*t of minotaurs
Yawns like lewd and evil breath
But instinct and a map
Has set to work inside my head
Instead of shedding tears
I've learned to drink and p*ss instead
They come, they go
They never do not go
They come, they see
They conquer then they leave
I am in Rome
And I am going to the games
I see the gulf
And it's going to
Bore my name into the
Green green grass
The catwalks of the past
My head is like an oven
As I rest it in my palms
We were just standing on the beach
When a bull rose from the surf
I said "show him the back door my dear
He'll only paw the turf"
Three seasons came and went
Tracksuits found the dispossessed
My wife had other plans
And now a bast*rd surfs the web
There's nothing she can do
He does not talk, he does not move
He spends all day looking at porn
Or playing f*cking Halo 2
They come, they go
They never do not go
They come, they see
They conquer then they leave
I am in Rome
And I am going to the games
I am the last to find my seat
I'm standing at the gate
Intermission comes
Nerves are touched, and smokes are screened
It's on a pack of cigarettes
Along with all our faults and memes and it says
Veni Vidi Vici
