A Man Of Science Lyrics by Orbs

Asleep Next to Science

0

So calculated, the words that come
Ah! But the glorious shine of a polished tongue
Have you been up practicing all night long?
Your mouth forms chords then arpeggiates
At first it's sweet and then it nauseates
Have you been up sweating this all night long?
At the crack of dawn you're out again
To show the world just where you stand
You dressed in your good suit today
Polish your shoes for such an occasion
Press that shirt and slick that hair
Now straighten your tie and get out there! Get out there!
The tile is burning through your rubber soles
Your sweat is beading, forming tiny pools
You're pacing and you're scaring the shit out of your kids
There's white foaming up in the corners of your mouth
The neighbor kids are laughing and pointing at your house
Your wife's ashamed
She's pulling all the blinds
You'd think you'd get the picture after time
Your roof is slowly growing weak
Sagging stretching like your speech
Oh my science! He's on the roof again!
Citing scripture and throwing up his...
They said "I don't think he's coming down
Face it, I don't think he's coming down!"
Oh my science! He's on the roof again!
Citing scripture and throwing up his...
"Does he think he's conducting some great orchestra?
Does he think he's conducting some great orchestra?
Cause he's waving his hands"
And I can't help but say:
"Oh my science! He's on the roof again!
Citing scripture and throwing up his hands
Oh my science! He's on the roof again!
Citing scripture, he's throwing up his hands
Dear science he's on the roof again!
Citing scripture, he's throwing up his hands."
Dressed in your good suit today (Not missing a beat, hitting every note, he's not discouraged by their laughter)
Polished your shoes, oh what a waste (Not missing a beat, hitting every note, he's not discouraged by sharp fingers)
Pressed that shirt and slicked your hair (Not missing a beat, hitting every note, he's not discouraged by their laughter)
And all you got were empty stares... (Not missing a beat, hitting every note, he's not discouraged by sharp fingers)
Not missing a beat, hitting every note, he's not discouraged by their laughter
Not missing a beat, hitting every note, he's not discouraged by sharp fingers
