Mobscene
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ladies and gentlemen
We are the things of shapes to come
Your freedom's not free and dumb, this Depression is Great
The Deformation Age, they know my name
Waltzing to scum and base, and married to the pain
Bang, we want it
Bang, we want it
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
You came to see the mobscene
I know it isn't your scene
It's better than a sex scene
And it's so fucking obscene, obscene, yeah
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
The day that love opened our eyes, we watched the world end
We have high places but we have no friends
They told us sin's not good but we know it's great
War-time full-frontal drugs, sex-tank armor plate
Bang, we want it
Bang, we want it
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
You came to see the mobscene
I know it isn't your scene
It's better than a sex scene
And it's so fucking obscene, obscene, yeah
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
You came to see the mobscene
I know it isn't your scene
It's better than a sex scene
And it's so fucking obscene, obscene, yeah
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
You want commitment? Put on your best suit
Get your arms around me, now we're going down, down, down
Ladies and gentlemen, be obscene
Be obscene
Be, be obscene
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
Be obscene! Be, be obscene!
Be obscene, baby! And not heard
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
