lyrics

Institute of the Placated Mind

Intoxicated typographer
Will speak and spell for a tithe
Urban landmine
Pay nullified
Institute of the placated mind
Pulling bootstraps
Known abstract
Immediate change of
The meaning required
To be refined

Redistribute your mind
Speak and spell for a tithe
Redistribute your mind

The rich on a hot streak
Of steak and fine wine
Of the least most importance
Of the quickest decline
A paper weight made of gold
While a thousand donkeys carry
They carry your load
They carry your load

Redistribute your mind
Speak and spell for a tithe
Redistribute your mind

Circumcise all the wires you fried
Redistribute your vacated mind
Institute of the placated mind
I don’t mind, I’m sure you won’t mind

Redistribute your mind
Redistribute your mind
