Cheeking Tongues Lyrics by Wire

The Ideal Copy

0

[Verse 1]
Oh, what gets revealed
In the inland sea
Eels in lungs
A mystery
Begin to pull in and out
Then stomachs wail
For what went astray
For what went astray

[Chorus]
Oh that cheeking tongue
Oh that cheating lunge
Were you there? Were you there?
Were you there? Were you there?
It's all history

[Verse 2]
Delirious vandals struggle with meters
A cheek tango with liters
Which fits and almost sick
Half track associations
Appear on parade
Appear on parade

[Chorus]
Oh that cheeking tongue
Oh that cheating lunge
Were you there? Were you there?
Were you there? Were you there?
It's all history

[Verse 3]
Unrefined, the final scam
It doesn't rhyme, it didn't matter
A soundtrack for your silence
Insincere

[Chorus]
Oh that cheeking tongue
Oh that cheating lunge
Were you there? Were you there?
Were you there? Were you there?
It's all history
