lirik lagu jinx lennon - city of styrofoam cups

Loading...

i p-ssed around for years, was a dead loss
i ended up in a place called fas learning about fork lifts and inventory
on the last day the instructors told us they’d take us out for a feed of drink
“you’re on the brink of success” they said “now lads” in a patronising voice
i knew i was going to be back in hole yeah, back on the dole yeah
i turned the keys in the ignition
it was a beautiful blue and yellow winter’s evening
i went up to the city of styrofoam cups yeah

the city of styrofoam cups:
from faraway the city is a great big chandelier
but when you get near
the light begins to separate, and you see a different landscape yeah, a different landscape
what’s that over there? is it casper the friendly ghost
with a white sheet?
no it’s a blanket to put over somebody’s knees

an empty cola cup staring on genuflection staring on looking up
the city of styrofoam cups yeah

i crashed my car in a place called ormonde quay –
to my best recollection the person that crashed into me had a smig on his chin
not unlike that of a goat
he was from navan
i knew right well when he heard a damage quote
the same individual would not be able to help but gloat
we took each others details and went our separate ways
my head was in a mess
i went looking round for the bibles of pink flesh
needed some erotic images to help me p-ss the test
in the city of styrofoam cups yeah

the city of styrofoam cups yeah:
from faraway the city looks a great big chandelier

with a white sheet?
no it’s a blanket to put over somebody’s knees an empty cola cup staring on genuflection staring on looking up
the city of styrofoam cups yeah

i round the corner, without warning, i looked down on the ground
there was a young thing about 7 or 8 years of age
she had a elgin marble pale face
i threw her a few coins to keep my conscience at bay hoping they would go away
across the street i could smell neapolitan and italian food
through transparent gl-ss a young man had his hand on his girlfriends -ss
they looked like an ad for british airways
where are you going on holidays in the city of styrofoam cups yeah?
and they can see all the big buildings like the spire standing straight and proud
but they should be the shape of bent bananas
there’s a lot of people out there should be wearing bananas

no it’s a blanket to put over somebody’s knees an empty cola cup staring on genuflection staring on looking up

what were you doing?
you were standing at the old grey silver bridge
you were moved along by a man in a blue uniform who looked like he was just fresh out of nappies
he was doing anything to keep the government happy
they saw you as a potential form of infection
“we don’t want transients” they said “coming up to the european presidential election” yeah
the war is in a rut but you’re no cigarette b-tt
you know in your heart from the start

the city of styrofoam cups yeah:
from faraway the city is a great big chandelier
but when you get near
the light begins to separate, and you see a different landscape

with a white sheet?
no it’s a blanket to put over somebody’s empty knees yeah

moving on running on staring on looking up
