Lyrics
I am trying to be heroic in an age of modernity I am trying to be heroic, because all around me history sings
So I enjoyed and I devoured flesh and wine and luxury But in my heart I am lukewarm nothing ever really touches me
At les trois garçons We meet at precisely 9 o'clock I order the foie gras and I eat it with complete disdain
Bubbles rise in champagne flutes But when we kiss I feel nothing
Feasting on sleeping pills and marlboro reds (So busy, won't save you) Oho, how our, how our parents they suffered for nothing Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream Like the 80's never happened People are afraid, are afraid To merge on the freeway Disappear here
Stroll the pier Into the magazine launch party I am handed a pill, and I swallow with complete disdain Kick-drum bangs off the high-hat; remembered to look bored We suck each others' faces and make sure we are noticed (Cocaine won't save you) Because east london is a vampire It sucks the joy right out of me How we look for corruption in these golden years
Oho, how our, how our parents they suffered for nothing Live the dream, live the dream, live the dream Like the 80's never happened People are afraid, are afraid To merge on the freeway Disappear here Disappear here Disappear here Disappear here Disappear here
