Mengelmoes - Savoury Precautions Lyrics

Once you were sat up so tall
Fantasising about the pointless fundamentals
So confused you were, wrapped up about the big and the small
Shouldn't those days have passed?

Now you have settled on a restored chair
Occupied to if the family will even care
All they needed was the laughter you allowed them to share
The mind is going a spew

Oh, look at her smile
Oh, if just for a while
Oh, I live for that smile
Oh, could never turn vile
Forbid a lack of confidence to get you down
Forbid it to trigger that doubting frown
Forbid a lack of confidence to get you down
Forbid it to trigger that doubting frown

Enamoured, we're enraptured
In the gift you've given us all
Enamoured, don't you stammer
Slather over what is pure

Perhaps it's perceived that I feel nothing at all
But the embers flit and flutter - nothing paranormal still
The thought of it induces connotations of bore
And time scurries away

The fabric drapes and flows - mundane, it's plain
But it's all you need, nothing more, to enlighten the day
Commonly restless expressions taints decisions as made
A declaration void

But oh, look at her smile
Oh, if just for a while
Oh, I live for that smile
Oh, could never turn vile
Forbid a lack of confidence to get you down
Forbid it to trigger that doubting frown
Forbid a lack of confidence to get you down
Forbid it to trigger that doubting frown
