Retrovertigo

Before you advertise
All the fame is implied
With no fortune unseen
Sell the rights to your blight time-machine

While I'm dulled by excess (dulled by excess)
And a cynic at best (cynic at the best)
My art imitates crime
Paid for by the allies, so invest

Now I'm finding truth is a ruin (oh, oh, oh)
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing (oh, oh, oh)
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized (oh, oh, oh, oh)
There's a vintage thirst returning (oh, oh, oh, oh)
But I'm sheltered by my channel-surfing (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo

(Ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Ah, ah, ah, ah)

A tribute to false memories
With conviction
Cheap imitation
Is it fashion or disease?
Post-ironic
Remains a mouth to feed

Sell the rights
To your blight
And you'll eat (na, na, na, na)
Now I'm finding truth is a ruin (na, na, na, na)
Nauseous end that nobody is pursuing (na, na, na, na)
Staring into glassy eyes
Mesmerized (na, na, na, na)
See the vintage robot wearied (na, na, na, na)
Then awakened by revision theories (na, na, na, na)
Every famine virtual
Retrovertigo
