Ordinary Slave

from The Holy Quinsy by The Quinsy

/

lyrics

He swims in the stinky lake
He's just an ordinary slave
His mind is almost dead
His god is the TV set

- Maybe I'm too harsh?
- I don't think so
- Maybe I'm a blind?
- I don't think so
But I can't understand how he can be so stupid

He fancies that he's an important one
And he's very afraid to be forgotten
He dreams to make his mark in the world
But all that he'd left now is pearled

- You can say it's bad luck
- I don't think so
- Maybe he's born to suck?
- I don't think so
So tell me why he can't find freedom?

He never asks awkward questions
He never makes clumsy suggestions
His logic is very simple -
Just always be in the middle

- Maybe he's just wise?
- I don't think so
- Maybe he trusts in lies?
- Yes, I think so
I just don't know what I can advise to that unhappy man
