Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth - Sunk In Reverie

[Verse 1: Bobby Gillespie]
All these late-night parties
Bore me to the grave
Spiritual concussion
Nothing left to say

All those tacky, trashy people
Falling at your feet
Crucified on Sunday
But back the following week

[Refrain: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
Hello, how are you?
So polite
Hello, how are you?
Twist the knife

[Verse 2: Bobby Gillespie]
Gentlemen on steroids
Ladies dress to kill
Void all emotion
Nothing left to thrill

They would suck you like a vampire
Pretend that they're your friends
The narcose turns them psycho
Then comes crashing down on them
[Refrain: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
Hello, how are you?
So polite
Hello, how are you?
Bourgeois smile
Hello, how are you?
Kissing air
Hello, how are you?
There's no one there

[Verse 3: Bobby Gillespie]
Mannequin discussions
A barter for a friend
You can fuck her if you want her
She's worth her weight in pens

The bodies keep on coming
The party never ends
The bodies keep on coming
The party never ends

[Refrain: Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth]
Hello, how are you?
You're such an act
Hello, how are you?
Talking trash
Hello, how are you?
Kissing air
Hello, how are you?
There's no one there
There's no one there
