lyrics
After all the smiles and the “Pleased to meet you”s
It's funny how the hate contorts your features
You were laying down some impediment speeches
I love you
You are out of reach, yeah
Love us
We are gorgeous creatures
We will fight you on the beaches
Here’s the stick with which they teach us
Its hard to say
But you love it
Don’t you?
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah Yeah
After all the smiles and the “Pleased to meet you”s
Its funny how the hate contorts your features
You were laying down some impediment speeches
I love you
you are out of reach, yeah
Love us
We are gorgeous creatures
Mix your vodka with my bleach, yeah
Here’s the sick with which they teach you
Its hard to say you love it
Here we come through heaven’s gate
We’re two thousand years too late
Something awful on your plate
Hold your breath
Two minute hate
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
It's funny how the hate contorts your features
You were laying down some impediment speeches
I love you
You are out of reach, yeah
Love us
We are gorgeous creatures
We will fight you on the beaches
Here’s the stick with which they teach us
Its hard to say
But you love it
Don’t you?
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah Yeah
After all the smiles and the “Pleased to meet you”s
Its funny how the hate contorts your features
You were laying down some impediment speeches
I love you

Love us
We are gorgeous creatures
Mix your vodka with my bleach, yeah
Here’s the sick with which they teach you
Its hard to say you love it

Fantastic record from start to finish, one of the best releases in recent years, and quickly became one of my personal favourites. I love this album so much that I keep a physical copy on display in my home.

Honestly it's so hard picking one favourite off this album, every song is as good as the last, and the flow to it is perfect. Organ Donor is going to have to be it though, because I heard it back before this album was released, live, and spent ages trying to find it. Absolute belter!
