Vegan in Furs

[Verse 1] I used to think it glad, while at my country seat Now I'm peaking in so many ways, the gloom is in retreat Yeah, the dark epoch is over I've found my Efeblum Then passed Ernst's mausoleum, defended by a rook Who shot a look so virulent, it pierced me like a hook The palaver of solipsists, exploding in my skull [Chorus] Yeah, and we both despise all of the academic swine Who made the author of Discus Ulysses benign? [Verse 2] So what if Wednesday finds us Wearing rabies parachutes? Foaming like the melody of sea foam fairy flutes The atmosphere is viscous, we're sticking to the brine [Chorus] Yeah, and we both despise all of the academic swine Who made the author of Discus Ulysses benign?
