Come Shake My Hand, You Sinister Genii​!​!

from The Omega Point EP by Pagan Wanderer Lu

lyrics

Where to begin? Mistakes left in
Your lies and face cover every space
My eyes they hurt from those colours
that you arrange
to echo in my eyes when I look away

Do you really know what I want better than I do?
I know you’ve got to make me feel safe
and feel like I choose the things I get from you.
The pavement cracks under my shoes
have started making sense
gonna teach everybody to sell in self-defense

Yes I’ll write your jingles and I’ll write them on demand
but the least that you could do is shake my hand
I’m not a guru like you it gets lonely in my studio
would it kill you just to come and say hello?
This latest brand of melons don’t inspire me like the last
Oh I fear my creativity has passed!
I spend ages with blank pages for a seven second tune
That will stick in people’s heads if there is room
Yes I’ll write your jingles and I’ll write them on demand but the least that you could do…
Is come shake my hand

Come shake my hand
or write your own fucking song
You’ve been complacent and secret and distant
for far too long
Come shake my hand
(unintelligible)
There’s too many people relying on geniuses to tell the truth

And if you’re such a fucking genius why do you sell, sell, sell?
And if you’re such a fucking genius why do you sell, sell, sell?
And if you’re such a fucking genius why do you sell, sell, sell
your fucking brand?
Come shake my hand
