lirik lagu father john misty – now i’m learning to love the war
[verse 1]
try not to think so much about
the truly staggering amount of oil that it takes to make a record
all the shipping, the vinyl, the cellophane lining, the high gloss
the tape and the gear
[verse 2]
try not to become too consumed
with what’s a criminal volume of oil that it takes to paint a portrait
the acrylic, the varnish, aluminum tubes filled with latex
the solvents and dye
[chorus]
let’s just call this what it is
the gentler side of mankind’s death wish
when it’s my time to go
gonna leave behind things that won’t decompose
[verse 3]
try not to dwell so much upon
how it won’t be so very long from now that they laugh at us for selling
a bunch of 15-year-olds made from dinosaur bones singing ‘oh yeah’
again and again
right up to the end
[chorus]
let’s just call this what it is
the gentler side of mankind’s death wish
when it’s my time to go
gonna leave behind things that won’t decompose
[outro]
i’ll just call this what it is
my vanity gone wild with my crisis
one day this all will repeat
i sure hope they make something useful out of me
