Lyrics
A febrile shocking violent smack
And the children are hoping for a heart-attack
Tonight the windows are watching
The streets all conspire
And the lamppost can't stop crying
If I could fly high above the world
Would I see a bunch of living dots spell the word stupidity
Or would I see hungry lover homicides
Loving brother suicides
And ally ally oxenfrees
Who pick a side and hide?
The world is scratching at my door
My morning paper's got the scores
The human interest stories, and the obituary, o yeah
Cockroach naps, rattling traps
How many devils can you fit upon a match head?
Caringosity killed the kerouac cat
Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction
In my alley around the corner
There's a wino with feathered shoulders
And a spirit giving head for crack and he'll never want it back
There's a little kid and his family eating crackers like thanksgiving
And a pack of wild desperados scornful of living
The world is scratching at my door
My morning paper has the scores
The human interest stories, and the obituary, o yeah
Cradle for a cat, wolfe looks back
How many angels can you fit upon a match?
I want to know why hemingway cracked
Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction
Life is the crummiest book I ever read
There isn't a hook, just a lot of cheap shots
Pictures to shock, and characters an amateur would never dream up
Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction
