An Elegant Chaos

Julian Cope

[Verse 1]
Busy at home
I was happy for a while but the joke is over
Looking down
At the carefully laid out infamy
Take a scythe, take a scythe
To the rotting core of man-vegetation
Now I sigh
At the cool, cool attitude to ignorance

[Chorus]
The look in your eye when you gave this to me
Just put me on my guard
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side

[Verse 2]
Shouting, "Ha!"
Was I forced into this or was it given to me?
It's a nice idea
As a gift or as something to try for a while
70 years
It's neither one thing or the other
My big fear
Is to dig it at last and have it taken away

[Chorus]
The look in your eyes when you gave this to me
Just put me on my guard
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side

[Bridge]
It's not a problem of secrecy, I take it in my stride
Did I learn to breathe to be killed like this?
Faces to the glass, I see them televise my death
Oh, and here comes the part where I break down and cry

[Verse 3]
People I see
Just remind me of mooing like a cow on the grass
And that's not to say
That there's anything wrong with being a cow anyway
But people are people
With the added advantage of the spoken word
We're getting on fine
But I feel more of a man when I get with the herd

[Chorus]
The look in your eyes when you gave this to me
Just put me on my guard
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side

[Outro]
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side
In this elegant chaos I stand to one side
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
