The Nu Temptations

I was surprised and I started to choke When I saw that the stars in your eyes Said you were telling a joke Still something's wrong It sounds like a tune So I assume that it's really a song You felt it, the pain You were proud of the shame That hung down aligned with your spine It is yours, not mine Still there you stand With support for the neck And the shoulders, yes even your hands Speak without a clue The new temptations Keep on stalking you Create a new plan, make it hard to understand Put it to the people, ignore the question why They ran from the one who was hiding the sun And tried to compete in the streets Where you lose when you've won The big surprise A crown made of razor and wire Surrounded by flies Speak without a clue The new temptations Keep on stalking you Create a new plan, make it hard to understand Put it to the people, ignore the question why Worthless treasure I want nothing Guilty pleasures, keep your money Don't offend me so stop pretending You're never bored and seldom angry Speak without a clue The new temptations Keep on stalking you Create a new plan, make it hard to understand The new temptations They keep on stalking you Create a new plan, make it hard to understand It's hard to understand the new temptations It's hard to understand the new temptations The nu temptations
